How many babies have been named Alice near you?

[AnythingNotEverything]

Hello all,

I really like Alice for our next DC, due in 3 months. However, I've seen baby names lists that show it has jumped to number 12 during the first quarter of 2013.

I really don't want a top 20 name - how many babies do you know who've been born recently and named Alice? Particularly interested in Yorkshire!

TIA

One.

Although there was another at the park today.

Bloody hell really? I was further back than that last year. I'm looking at the only one I know now.

Mjne born 2009. There's another in the nursery shell be going ti

I'm in the Northwest and I know two. It's a beautiful name!

I know one (south east)

I don't know any (it was on our list though!), I'm in Lincolnshire

Thanks - I'm so confused as I don't know any (although know of one who is about 5), so can't understand how it's apparently so high up the list!

It's so lovely. I don't know any baby Alices at all

I know one, born in February in Lancashire. It's also my dds middle name she's 6

I know about 6 under the age of 2. Very popular where I am.

I'm in Lincolnshire, don't know any at the moment but my friend is due with an Alice.next week.

None in the DC school either.

I'm in the North West and know no little Alices!

I'm across the border in Co Durham and know two, both aged four.It's a lovely name.

My name is Alice and I love my name!

I know about 5 or 6. Very popular where I am (not Yorkshire).

My DD2 is an Alice and is the only one in her school. We know 2 more Alices who are teenagers. Don't know any baby Alices.

12!!!!! It was number 48 when I had my Alice a few years ago....

I have noticed a few other toddler Alice's about and I met a new born Alice last week, it is getting more popular. Still a gorgeous name though :)

none and none as DC's classmates

I am in Yorkshire and don't know any children or babies called Alice at all. Lots of Alicia but no Alice. I like it too.

One.

I know three Alices age 2 and under. Not in Yorkshire though. It's a lovely name though so don't let popularity put you off if you like it.

It's so confusing isn't it? I love the name alice too. I know one personally and of two others through friends. I'm south east. I do think its classic enough to carry popularity though.

Can I ask where you saw the lists for first quarter of 2013? I'd love to check my names on them!

2 first name and 1 with it as second name. Lovely name. It was near the top of our list before 2 close friends used it within a year of our DD being born!

I can't remember the site (and it may not be entirely correct!) but I googled baby names 2013 and got this site as first hit:

Sorry - I can't link from my phone!

It may be utter tripe. I think I really like Alice Jemima. Hmmmmmmm.

I know one.
