What names are popular in your child's class right now?

[triplechocbrownie]

I'm expecting a baby girl and am interested to know what names are coming up in your child's nursery or class (primary school) a lot at the moment?

My daughter goes to quite a small school but there are multiples of:

Tabitha
Violet
Amelia
Iris
Rosie
Clara
Daisy
Scarlett

Not the ones you’d necessarily expect!

Ivy
bonnie
eva
evie
ava
Aria
williow
autumn
Amelia
Frankie
elsie
polly
Layla
ivy

Ella x3
Isabelle x4
Freya x2
Millie x2
Emily x2
this is over a year group of 60. There’s probably more but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Evie. Mia. Harper. Willow. Phoebe. Amelia. Amelie
Jack. Charlie Jacob. Harry. Theo. Rueben

They're gorgeous names and yes, not necessarily the ones you would expect. I love them all apart from Scarlett.

In my children's year groups there are multiples of (in year 2): Annabella, Amelia, Amelie and Freya and (in reception): Penelope, Lucy and Eva.

Many to say multiples of all these.

We seem to have quite a few of the following

Boys
Harry
Arlo
Oliver
Leo

Girls
Evie (Eva, Eve, Evelyn etc)
Amelia / Amelie
Isla
Hailey

You know you can get all this information for the national statistics website and it actually tells you how many babies were named each name each year. We purposely didn't pick anything that was top 50.

Thanks @Covidiokilledtheradiostar are there multiples of these?

Noah
Bella
Alfie
Harvey

Y3 has 3 x Rèmi and 2 x Cece
Preschool has 2 x Eloise and 2 x Otto

Definitely not ones you'd expect there to be loads of!

The girls names we have multiples of in the year group of 90 at the moment are:

Esther
Isabel (various spellings)
Andrea
Sienna
Maia (various spellings)
Alicia (various spellings)
Vera (various spellings)

Across the school there are also more than one of:

Sofia/Sophia
Sara/Sarah
Clara
Zuzanna
Julia
Diana
Shalom
Jasmine
Leah
Lacey
Millie
Maria
Rebecca (various spellings)
Valentina
Lola
Maisie
Lena
Mia
Emily
Laura
Elise
Lexi
Amelia
Daniella
Jennifer/Jenny

Theres lots of teddys, islas,,evies, florences and arthurs in my sons school

From a loose survey of names I know in the 3-5 age group:

Joan
Phoebe
Laurie
Sienna x3
Lennox
Hadley
Emerald
Grace x3
Luz
Tilda
Kenzie
Harper

Jason
Lowell
Theodore
Michael
Paul
Pavel
Casimir
Dante

I would say across my school the most popular are definitely Isla, Amelia / Emilia, Charlotte, Olivia and Sophia. Every class from the nursery to Year 3 has an Amelia / Emilia and the rest are well spread out across the board.

They’re beautiful names though, popular for a reason!

Also a good selection of Isabella’s and Maggie’s (the latter of which surprises me but it’s also grown on me!)

Every other girl is called Margot atm.
Lots of ie ending names for both boys and girls.

Interesting! Thanks! A lot of names I wouldn't expect to be quite as popular as they are! Whereabouts are you?

Amelia
Sophia
Isla

In EYFS and KS1, there are 4 girls called Claire or Clare.
3 Elizabeth, although none use their full name
3 Isabell/Isabella, with various spellings

I have dc in nursery and primary plus plenty of friends with kids from 0-5. Multiple names are:

Isla
Florence
Freya
Ella
Arabella
Isabella/Bella
Poppy
Alice

Isaac
Harvey
Noah
Arthur
Luca
George
Max

Not multiples of but May as well be as they all blend into one: Evie, Emily, Isla etc
Lots of Ls - Lana, Lily, Lola, Lilah
Not many (not any, I think!) actual repetitions.
Know a few Violets of various ages.

boys
Multiple Teddies and Charlies
Loads of Finleys and Henrys and Theos
Drowning in Freddies
2 Euans and an Ethan (more vowels!)

Nor did we but my DD has ended up sitting next to another one in class!

There are three Camillas in the Reception class which surprised me.

In DD’s year there are three Amelias, one Emilia and two Josephs.

Ella, Bella, Isabella, Isabelle/Isabel
Eva, Evie, Ava
Sophia
Mia, Maya, Maia
