The ONS (office for national statistics) provide a list of ALL names (well, all those used at least twice). I haven't got the direct link but try googling it.

Try just Googling 'top 500 names 2010' (don't forget they're published a year later so 2011's won't be available until 2012). I have lists of the top 1000 boys and girls names for 2007 which I found by Googling - they're getting slightly out of date but they give you a rough idea of a name's popularity. If you're happy to have just the top 100 you should have no difficulty finding them as they're often published in newspapers.
