Just had a look at my Facebook friend list, and I seem to know a lot of adults called either Kate/Katie/Katy or Alex.

User24689 · 13/05/2017 01:02

I'm in western Australia and it's:
Boys: Noah, Oliver, Ethan (every group we go to seems to have either a Noah or an Ethan or both!)
Girls: Mia, Ava and more recently Harper (know 3 born this year)
Interesting to see other responses from elsewhere - I have an Isla and we have never met another here in WA in fact it often gets mispronounced.

SuperBeagle · 13/05/2017 01:07

Oh yes Harper is popular here in NSW as well. I know a few now. One Harlow too.

I have an Isla and we have never met another here in WA in fact it often gets mispronounced.

Really?! That's so weird. I'm in WA and I thought everyone knows of Isla Fisher, plus Isla has been reasonably for years. (Pretty name, btw)

KoalaDownUnder · 13/05/2017 06:51

*reasonanlg popular

KoalaDownUnder · 13/05/2017 06:52
