Hi all. I wanted to share with you all something I recently discovered on the Office for National Statistics website.
I'm due my third child in a couple of weeks time and when it comes to naming baby I wanted to make sure we didnt choose one of the most popular names to give our child.
The following link takes you to the ONS website where there are two excel spreadsheets which list all names given to baby boys & girls in 2013 (the 2014 version hasnt been released yet)
There's all sorts of information, but on the last couple of sheets it lists all the names given to every baby in England and Wales and how many children were named each name (as long as there was over three children named it)
Im rather geeky and I love a good spreadsheet - cant just be me though surley!
Apologies if this has been posted before but it might help a few of you make your final decisions, especially if you like me want to avoid overly popular names.
