I'm 40 - women's names pretty diverse - I know a couple of Sarahs & Helens - but nothing keeps cropping up. Male friends all seem to be Simon, David or Christopher.

I'm 32 (1981) and have too many 30-something Tims in my life to count. Definitely over 10 - am amazed no one else has said Timothy! 3 in my year at Uni, 4 from my home town/school year, 2 at work, 2 relatives, and 1 newborn (doesn't count I know!)

Also a load of Tom and James, at least 4 of each.

Girls more diverse but there were 5 Katherine's (all Kate) at school and also several Annas, Gemmas and Georginas.

These days I seem know lots of Hannahs, Marks and Nicks, as well as all the toms and tims!
