Girl names that are very 'of the moment' please? As these are what I apparently like!

Hi, I seem to like very 'of the moment' names. I'm due a little girl, any suggestions?

Thea is up and coming. I've known of 2 born in the last year and others who are considering/have considered it. If you look at the stats, it's one of those names like Ava and Isla that have shot up into the top 100 very quickly. Obviously Thea's not as popular as them yet but it was one of the highest risers in the top 100 in 2014.

Sorry I missed the GIRLS part! Under 1s I know, Sophia, Lily, Liliana, Aria, Aurora, Olivia, Alexa.

Mottled · 27/08/2016 16:18

A lot of names mentioned on here every five minutes are Margo, Hugo, Thea but I am yet to meet any young ones. In the real world I have 3 under 8 and the most popular names are Olivia/Oliver, Lily, Alfie/Archie, Amelia.

Oh and Luna! I totally forgot about Luna. I know several Lunas born in the last couple of years.

A lot of names ending in sounds 'ie' or 'a' basically!

Normandy144 · 27/08/2016 14:41

The ONS stats for 2015 are due out early September I believe, so that would be a great starting point for you - maybe look at the highest climbers as that often indicates a 'now' name as opposed to something like Olivia which has been a regular top 10 name for a good ten years now.
