How many under 10s do you know that are named Austin? Just curious to see if it's becoming more popular x

I know 2 Austins under age 10 so yes, fairly popular.

It's a nice name. I also like Quentin and Reuben which are similar.

It's become a little more well-known since the "Austin and Ally" series started on the Disney channel, but I only know one toddler with the name.

We now have 2 in our small school! It's a great name but seems to be on the rise...

It was the 89th most popular boy's name in 2014, up from 354th in 1996.

It is hugely on the rise.
