Alex (both sexes), Sam (I know at least 5), Tom, Luke, For girls, Sophie, Amy, Abbie were all duplicates.

My name, Emma was bloody everywhere when I was at school. There were 4 of us just in my maths class, plus I was friends with another 2 outside of school. I hated it and wish my parents had gone with their original choice of Louisa, as I don’t know any others.

Boys names wise I think Tom is the only one I can think of where there multiples in my class.

Jonathan and Matthew for boys.
