Where can I find a list of names NOT in the top 100

I have found the top 100 names on several sites.

I am interested in browsing names that are not in the top 100, but in order of popularity.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a list of the top 1000 names? Or something.

Also, I saw a graph somewhere which showed the trends of names over the past few years (ie which were increasing in popularity and which were decreasing) - anyone know where this is?

Thanks!!!

On the site of the uk Office for National Statistics. Do a search for baby names and you'll get some Excel pages of baby names.

Just click on the links for all the names for 2010 with more than 3 children named (as well as interesting tables on popularity by region/month).

I also find these collated lists helpful:

How about
www.amazon.com/Is-Atticus-Names-Great-Books/dp/1599950200

This book came out just days after I named by son Atticus!

Table four here is the list of ALL the firstnames registered in Scotland in 2011. You can also view 2010.

Thanks all.

Maybe i'm being dumb but I can still only find the top 100 on the ONS site.

Can anyone provide the full link, or an idiot's guide?

See the links I posted above and go to Table 6.

www.behindthename.com/top/ This one has top 1000 names for USA and other countries, only top 100 for UK though. It's good for searching for descriptions though and other lists and categories.

Like Stellan says - you need to scroll across to sheet 6 of the excel spreadsheet. the first sheet is the top 100 names, keep going and the last one is the top 1000.

Thanks Stellan and minipie - I hadn't spotted the tables underneath but this is exactly what I was looking for. Great!
