Names your surprised aren't higher up the charts

[Bowsandbugs]

As title says. Mine are Ivy and Logan

Luna, Clara, Liam and Finn surprised me

Can't believe April isn't in the top 100.

Ingrid
Marianne
Saskia

Romilly
Ramona
Dorothea

Threeandabit do you know many children with those names? I've not met any but I do know a baby Dorothy

No, it's just they crop on Mumsnet a lot. They seem to get mentioned but not used. I have known both an Ingrid and a Romona - They'd be teens now.

Probs because they border on the 'brave' side...kind of like a wish list name lol

Months/seasons/days of the week names

Benedict was only used between 51 and 100 times I think I read on here. That's quite surprising to me.

Names that aren't in the top 100 in Australia:

Clara
Arabella
Freya
Juliet
Lillian
Sadie

Frederick
Julian
Robert
Spencer

Names that I'm surprised aren't higher up the charts:

Lily (24)
Violet (44)
Penelope (52)
Frankie (61)
Bella (63)
Daisy (83)
Lola (84)
Florence (85 - only just appeared in the top 100 in 2016)

Harry (27)
Finn (42)
Edward (52)
Flynn (53)
Felix (66)
Caleb (88)
John (97)

My dds name is alice and I'm alway surprised it isn't more popular. I also think victoria is due a revival

Georgia - it's way more popular than lots of the top 10 names round here (e.g. the only Olivia I know is 14). Ditto Emilia.

For boys, I'm surprised that Aidan isn't more popular (perhaps it is because of the Aidan/Aiden split).
