Ive come accross four newborns recently. And every other boy is Leo. I was just wondering as its quite old school why all of a sudden its really popular.

I feel like every post about name I look at on here someone suggests Clara, whether suggestions were requested or not.

Clara has been popular since the Doctor Who character

Not so sure where the little Leos are coming from - perhaps it just means that the unpopularity of the Blair association is beginning to wane

I don't know just the next trend version of the 2010s common girls names (short with an -a)

Mia maya mya maeve
Ava Ada aria
Eva eve evie Edie
Orla Isla

Longer common 2010s with an -a
Sophia
Isabella

Think the Leo is a revamp of 2010s Theo, Milo, Arlo, etc

Also in north London and awash with Clara's aged 0-7. Next Ava I think

I know Clara is an old name but I have still heard of it in those who are in the their 20's, 30's and of cause younger.
Leo is much the same I think.
