What baby boy names are you hearing of lots now in your circles/on TV etc rather than what's "officially" in the top ten?

Old testament names seem to be a trend too for toddlers e.g. Reuben, Isaac, Jacob, Noah
Home counties if it helps.

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 16/02/2015 12:56

The baby boys who have been born recently are one each of William, James, Rupert & Arlo.

Of DD's age (3-4) almost every boy is Oliver or Oscar. In fact, four new DCs joined DD's pre-school class in January - 2 x Oliver and 2 x Olivia. I kid you not. DD was quite confused at the time Smile.

Smile Honestly I am - I know a 40 year old Arthur, a 70 year old Arthur (they both hate their names), then between a toddler group that I take my niece to, my husbands work place and the odd neighbour I must "know" about 8 Arthurs under 4.
