Names you know multiple children with

[toobreathless]

If that makes any sense!

Not pregnant, just nosey & sparked by the fact that I know 8 Williams under 4 years! We know quite a few children but these are the only named duplicated.

William x 8
Samuel x 3
Joshua x 3
Wilf x 3
Ethan x 2

Matilda x 3
Elizabeth x 3

There is only one name I have come I across twice in all my child groups and that is Violet. Otherwise just one of everything. Seems to be unusual, but might be to do with a vey multicultural populace round my way.

All with grace or rose as mn

A few:
Arthur

My DD1 has one of these popular names but in her preschool of 80 children she is the only one. At the time I named her we didn't know of any other children with her name but it has since exploded in popularity. We couldn't know that was going to happen.

I have a name that isn't unusual at all but I NEVER meet people with it. EVER!

Round here (SE London) all the children seem to have quite unusual naice names, so not much duplication. Apart from...

Isabelle/a x lots
Grace x 3
Esme x 2
Poppy x 2
Charlotte x 3

Samuel x 3
Theo x 2
Felix x 2
George x loads
Dexter x 2

Ollie x 10

Ollie/Oliver
Courtney
Alfie
Sophie

George, Xander, William, Lawrence, Felix, Thomas, Harry

Alice, Scarlett, Tabitha, Lily, Ella, Anya, Megan, Charlotte.

I know 6 girls named Daisy in one year group (of 4 classes) 3 are in one class!

Ellie, Ella, tons
Eva, Evie tons
Isabel, etc 3 just in dds class
Grace x4
Anna x3
Amelie/ia too many!
Roby x4
Sophie/ia x3

George, Harry, Sam, Henry, Charlie.... Loads of all.
These are all in the 2 youngest year groups of dds school!

My name has popped up a lot! (as in mine, not my children) though still always for boys. Still have memories of being told I had a boys name at school!

Harry x 3

Nathan X 2

James x 3

Poppy X 2

Isla X 2

Evie x 2

Freya x 2

Molly x 2

Megan x 2

Daniel x 5

Everyone here is called Alex or Emily.

Either that or they have a name that doesn't make it into the top 1000 (Foxglove, anybody?)

Of those aged six & under, I know more than one of the following:
Ollie/Oliver
Harry
Jack
Ethan
Samuel/Sam
Henry
Jude
Alfie (many little boys & assorted cats & dogs)
Evie/Eve & variants
Isobel & variant spellings
Willow
Poppy
Fern/Fearne

My DC are older & they have plenty of friends named Emily, Harry, Ollie (boys & girls), Jack, Sam, Matthew, Hannah & Charlotte.

Callum
Connor
Ellie
Sophie/Sophia

Ellie/Sophie/Evie x1000
Harry/Alfie/Jack x1000

or so it seems

There are very few names of children that I don't know multiples of but the names most frequently duplicated in my circles for girls appear to be Matilda, Florence, Emilia and Francesca (I know at least 4 or 5 of each). There are way too many other duplicates to mention, (some are quite uncommon which would out me). For boys, I can only think of one or two names which aren't duplicated (and they are very unusual names!)

Wyatt
Jack
Dylan
Joshua
Harry
Hudson
Sam
Thomas
Oliver
Jude
Stanley
Rhys
Kyle
Dean
Jayden
Miles
James
Jenson
Callum
Cameron
Probably another couple I have forgotten about.

Niamh/Neve/Neave
Caitlin/Katelyn/Catelyn/Cayte-linn
Ellie
Ella
Lily-May and all the various spellings
Erin
Phoebe
Sophie
Taya
Summer
Grace
Lola
Lauren
Olivia/Olyvia/Alyvia
Alisha
Florence
Poppy
Ruby
Lucy
Darcy
Martha
Maya

I know multiples of the following
Amelia
Sophia
William
Isabel
Oliver
Elizabeth
Jack
Think that's it. Some of them have quite wide age ranges. So I know a baby Oliver but also an 11 year old one.

Priya x3
K-C x 2 one boy and one girl
Ethan x 2
Joshua x one million
Maeve x 2
Emmeline x 2
Oliver too many to count. Dd has 3 in her class of 30.
DN has 3 Samuels just in his class.
Both DC have a William and a Will in their class.
Isobel/Isabelle etc, again too many to count.
Evie/Eva/Ava tonnes.
Molly x 2
Maisie x 2
Lucy x 5

There must be more but I can't think now.

Martha, Matilda and Ruby. How could I forget those!
