Just thought I'd pop in and say Katie is indeed very very common around 8+ right now even if not in babies

Kay has not been common in last 50 years (single digits last year) but actually not at all weird or unusual sounding.

Lots of names that used to be popular but are rarely heard now: Sally, Carol, Kathy, Ann, Mary, Marie, Nicky, Sara, Tara, April, Mona, Helen, Jane, Madge

More up to date suggestions: Thea, Zara, Lola, Tia, Sassie, Pink, Beth, Cara, Millie, Lydie, Nola, Faith, Wyn, Dolly, Kit, Opal
