Robert. Would have been my choice had we had boys. I like how versatile it is - Bob, Bobby, Rob, Bertie etc

I love the name Matthew. I know it's still used but it's fallen out of the top 100 now. To me, I'd rank it with names like James, Thomas, Alexander and William in terms of how classic it feels, and yet this one has fallen right away while they all still reign supreme in and around the top 30.

Peter too. The popularity of Peter Rabbit makes it still seem so fresh to me but clearly, judging by the stats, most people disagree!

Christopher is another gorgeous classic I'm surprised is no longer in regular use.

For girls, Anna and Victoria are both incredibly classic and international so I'm surprised they're no longer top 50 popular (especially when you see some of the names which are).

Gavin. Great name. Long overdue a comeback.

Winston. Great name. Sadly ruled out for us as we live near a famous brothel of the same name!
