ONS Baby Names 2012?

iclaudius and quesedilla, there are excel spreadsheets on the ONS website including all names down to 3 entries. here

"Ava's not really like Eva though is it?"

It is, yes, because Eva is pronounced Ava (as in Ava Gardner) in many languages.

Unless you're pronouncing Ava like Ah-va .... But they are all variants of Eve.

you probably already found it, but it opens as a spreadsheet with several tables. Look at the tabs at the bottom of the screen and scroll along to Table 6 and click.

also has anyone got a non-PDF list of all the names? (i.e. not just top 100). Acrobat has packed up....

Sorry but how do I see the 'outside top 100' ones??

Vary = Very!

Goldalocks i apologise. DD1's name is not on the list, but some of the variants are. I would have been vary annoyed if the registrar said i'd spelt it incorrectly!

No Eddards.

Yes, Theon is a shit!

15 Theons and 4 Tyrions!

Theon is a shit!

6 named Sansa!

And not a single Cersei, I know she's a bit of a baddie brother shagger, but I thought she'd have a few fans.

Wow, 21 Game of Thrones fans actually named their daughter Khaleesi.

I think I need to step away from the lists, but just noticed that Aubrey was given to 26 boys - along with 26 girl Aubrey's and another 26 Aubree's.

I feel like a registrar somewhere is playing an elaborate joke on me

I think its really weird the number of really similar names that were given exactly the same number of times?

For example;
Tamzin and Tamsin were both given to 47 girls, at number 812
Lexi-May and Lexi-Rose were both given to 27 girls
Aubree and Aubrey were both given to 26

Noticed it a few times on the boys as well - like Boris and Borys given to 33 boys each?

Ava's not really like Eva though is it?

Oh ok, I looked on the list the yr she was born and there was 5, so it is never going to be popular ( which to me is good) .

Harryisuptheduff - Great lists

It means less than three babies were given her an,e as they don't list names with only three of them for confidentiality reasons ns.

My dd's name is just in the top 1000 names with 36 girls given her name, it has dropped down slightly in popularity. I am pleased as I keep seeing it mentioned on mnet and I don't want it to get really popular!

My ds4 name was give. To 47 boys last year, its never been popular, yet in his year group of 60 there is a boy with the same,e name!

It means there were 2 or 1 or 0 babies given that name as a first name.

Depending on your search it might have been part of a double-barrel (Lily-X) or a middle name that the child is actually known by, though.

If my DD name doesn't appear on the list does that mean no one was called that in 2012? (She was born in 1998 btw. )

worldcitizen - yes that's right.

theresmore I did that work last night (although I didn't combine Amelia and Amelie as it happens) and will post a top fifty later when on laptop.

Ah, if I'd read the first page I'd have seen everyone already said the same thing!
