Does anyone know how to see ALL the names used in 2018?

Just that.

I remember someone posting a 2017 link of every single baby name used that year and how many times and it was so interesting.

I can't seem to get onto it for 2018.

Does anyone know?

I've not downloaded the links, but is the Office for National Statistics list what you are after?

@ColdRainAgain yep I've been on there - but no idea which link it is that gives you the full list of names used!

I've tried before and only seem to find the top 100.

You need to open the Excel spreadsheet from the above link and then go to Table 6.

Apparently there were more boys called Royalty and Rory-Ray than my DS's name last year Grin

Wow some names have really dropped off a cliff! Stuart, Tim, Craig, Keith, Gavin -- only 12 Gavins born last year. More boys called Perseus than Ron or Steve.

Five Amazing-Graces last year. Don't normally like hyphenated names but wish I had the balls to use that!

Oh, this is cool, thanks for the links! We’re struggling with name ideas, so hopefully this will help!
