In your opinion what name's are becoming popular at the moment?

Wondered what the popular names were at the moment and what names you think are going to become popular in the next couple of years

[CuppaTeaJanice]

Girls - Rosie/Rose/Evie/Eva/Mia
Boys - Jack/Jake/Oliver/Thomas/James

I think we'll see more names appear from popular TV and films - eg Quinn and Finn from Glee, names from Twilight, various soaps and whatever else is popular.

Also there's some sort of football competition (World Cup?) this year, so I wouldn't be surprised if there are loads of babies named after footballers.

Alfie. Grace. Ellie / Eleanor. Noah. Ned / Ted. Charlie. Rose as a middle name.
Think more unusual biblical names will 'enjoy' a revival over next couple of years eg. Abel can't think of any more! Amos ? Malachy ? Also 70's names eg. Clare, Joanna, Nicola, Martin, Stuart, Julian.

[Fayrazzled]

Girls: Florence, Olivia, May, Ella, Grace, Scarlett

Boys: Alfie, Noah, William, Edward, Oliver, Charles/Charlie, George, Henry/Harry, Finley/Finlay

I think old names will continue to increase in popularity: Edna, Edith, Mabel, Arthur, Wilfred, Albert etc.

[SqueezyB]

Names I once thought of as unusual that I'm now seeing more and more of:

Arthur, Milo, Arlo, Ted/Edward, Gabriel, Quentin (?!), Sidney, Hector - and all the old-man names that haven't been used as much yet!

Florence, Hermione, Flora, Bess/Betty, Darcey, Esme, Edith

Boys: Alfie, Archie, Finn/Finley/Finlay, Charlie, Harry, Oliver.

I love Albert, sadly dh does not feel the same

[evamummy]

Albert, nickname Albie is cute!

I agree, we're definately seeing a revival of 'old' and previously 'posh' names.
