The names I hear all the time are:

Isabella
Sophia
Evie
Olivia

Thomas
Charlie
Henry
Jack

What are yours? I thought 4 was a good number to avoid those really long lists!

(FWIW I love all of these names, I'm just interested in local trends)

I'm in London so no English names but loads of

Aicha - Yasmin - Leila - Habiba

Boys names are really varied although lots of Mohammeds and Abdullahs but not many others that are the same. We have lots of Spanish, Japanese, Mongolian, Russian etc..Really beautiful unusual names - Although I've noticed Russian families go for old fashioned boys names such as Eric and Dennis!

Very many Iris, Ivy and Isla girls being born around here, too. Why are 'i' names so popular?
