Four thousand.

No, but really - a lot.

Susiethetortoiseshellcat · 27/06/2017 06:15

I know 3 under 4. Have met several others at baby groups. It's no 1 in popularity charts, isn't it? So bound to be lots around. Pretty name though.

2-my 6 year old and an 11 year old in my dd1s ballet class

KERALA1 · 27/06/2017 06:57

A couple in each class. I nearly went for this name before realising how popular it was. Glad I avoided first baby class I attended there were 3! The mums were all Hmm

A 5 year old Olivia with a 12 year old sister called Grace!

PunjanaTea · 27/06/2017 07:06

I don't know any!

Aedie4 · 27/06/2017 07:24

Haven't met one at any baby classes yet! I know two,one is 30 and one is 10/11 x

12 years of teaching and I've taught 2. Don't know any personally.

Always surprises me that it's the most popular name and apparently there are a hundred in every year group, that's not been my experience at all.

I love the name.

Actually surprisingly few. DD1 (16) has an Olivia in her year. That's it.

grufallosfriend · 27/06/2017 09:19

Loads

  1. DD2(4) and a newborn.
Cyclingforcake · 27/06/2017 09:35

1 - she must be about 40 by now. The only Grace I know is 12. My top 2 girls names for years. Unfortunately I had a boy so couldn't use them. (He's called Oliver and there's only 2 in his nursery despite being the top name for the last few years)

Unadon · 27/06/2017 13:42

3 - aged 4, 27, 31.

reuset · 27/06/2017 14:53

Too many to count, I'm afraid, and ranging in age from toddler to teens. I coudn't say that about any other name.

bridgetreilly · 27/06/2017 15:57

Half a dozen of all ages, though I can't think of one under 10.

Moresaltedcaramel · 27/06/2017 16:01

Dozens, from babies though late teens/early twenties (DC always had 3 or 4 in their year at school) to 40s and 50s. I don't think I know any 60+

leghoul · 27/06/2017 16:02

4

Ecureuil · 27/06/2017 16:03

I've just counted 9, from baby to teen

SnotGoblin · 27/06/2017 16:05

I know a 4 year old Olivia Grace.

noodlebum · 27/06/2017 16:57

Just the 1

alltouchedout · 27/06/2017 16:59

I knew one at school (left 20 yeara ago), she was horrible.
There's one in ds1's year 6 class, she's an absolute sweetheart.

EccentricPickle · 27/06/2017 17:01

Every second little girl I know is called Olivia. There are loads here!

Loads of Olivers too - but that's not what you asked Grin.

pamplemoussed · 27/06/2017 17:01

at least five.
