Popular boy names?

I feel that Alfie and Charlie are really popular names at the moment. In every baby/toddler club there is one of them, or both. Once met baby twins: alfie and Charlie. Any other names that are really popular at the moment?

The ONS survey will tell you for sure.

Round here it seems to be Jo/Joseph (by quite a long way), also Sam, Ollie/Oliver, and William.

Here it's Oliver / Ollie, Jacob / Jake, Archie and Thomas that are.the most popular names. I don't know any pre-school Noah or Samuels despite these apparently being very popular names.

LaTristesse · 12/12/2011 18:18

Lots of Noahs here, and Archie, Isaac, Jake too as well as all those names like Jayden...

Finn, Jack, Alfie, Archie, Bertie, Charlie, Oliver, Tom, Sam, Will, Ed are all VERY widely used round here.

mopsyflopsy · 13/12/2011 12:02

Yeah, lots of Fin/Finn variations here, as well as lots of cutey type names Alfie, Albie, Archie, Teddy, Charlie and other top 10 names like Oliver, Harry, Thomas, William etc.

I don't really know that many babies but out of about a dozen there are FOUR Sam's, THREE Max's and two Jacks. I only know two boys born in 2011 without those three names, my ds and one Miles.

Lexi? For a boy? Really?

MamaLazarou · 13/12/2011 15:02

No Charlies or Archies round here - or, none that I have met, anyway. The popular boy names are:

Edward
Oscar
Max
Zak
James
Ethan
Reuben
Oliver

comedaygoday · 13/12/2011 16:17

I had forgotten Ethan, that is really popular, as are Lewis and Lucas

3isamagicnumber · 13/12/2011 20:55

Recent names I've heard are Archie, Sam, Harry, and Noah.
