Over twenty five hears in primary Ed...
Hayden ,Charlie, Felix ,Gabriel are overdone.
Rafferty and Leon is more popular.

No one is being called John. A lovely name from my youth , in the 60s.

They are. I know a baby John. Named after his grandfather. I could've done it with my son, after my dad, but it's his middle name instead!

Top 3:
Thomas
Jonah
Henry
But also Benjamin, Gabriel, Daniel, Angus, Jude.. great list really!

Bottom 3:
Charlie - so overused
Rafferty - gives me dog name vibes
Hayden - a bit American/ surname as first name.
