Where are all the Florences?

[Swishyswashy]

Top of our list at the moment, but has got super populate- up in the 20s for top 100 names and has shot up the list over 100 places in the last few years. Heard of a couple little Florences, but through schools, nurseries playgroups etc have only met a handful. Asked a midwife this week and she has delivered very few. We are in London, thought it would be a hotbed of Florences. Those of you who claim to know loads, where do these babies and toddlers live?! What sort of name is it? Apart from fairly popular?

I live in South London and don't know of any Florences. It's a nice name, maybe a tad frilly. All the little girls around here seem to be called Evie, Eve, Eva, Ava, Maya, Olivia or Amelie.

I know one born this year, and another who's coming up to 2 I think.

I know a four year old , with a sister called Matilda and a brother called Gabriel. And a teenager with a big sister called Molly when both names were very unusual.

Florence is quite popular in my area of north London and has been for a while as I know several teenage ones.
