Sorry if this post has already been done but I'm interested to know which names are most common in your child's class and what year they are in.
My LG is in year 1 and the most common girls name is Ruby and the most common boys names are Jack and Oliver.

Nursery not school yet, but the only names that are doubling up are Leo and Eva.

Rowan for the boys. No idea about the girls, they are alien to DS 🤣

DS is in reception, there are multiple Adams, Jacks and Edens across the three classes

Year 6 - Mia (no duplicate boys)
Year 2 - no duplicates at all

Hazels and Williams. Particularly Williams.

And the awful thing is that we have descriptors for them of memorable events or features. So Hazel is lucky because hers is SCIENCE (because she shouted it once a thousands years ago) or another is Freckles. But Williams are variously Mean William, Bum Hanging Out William, Toady William and similar. The Williams have been a source of some drama in our lives.

No repetition that I'm aware of in reception, but in nursery there were two Georges (and a girl Georgie) and two Arias. And a big Charlotte/little Charlotte, big Erin/little Erin to differentiate between staff and children. Have no idea in DS's nursery class - he doesn't talk yet and I only have an idea of a couple of them.

In my DD2 nursery there are two Ella's
Boys I don't think there are any duplicates. I was looking at their pegs today though and some of the names for the boys seemed pretty uncommon: Woody being one of them. I can't remember the others now!

Anders and Eva going by what our not overly reliable son says.

At his old school it seemed to be Theo (there were even siblings called Teddy and Theo…) and Margot.
