Definitely a trend for short girls names ending in ‘a’. Normally 3 or 4 letters. The majority of girls in nursery seem to have a name like this: Luna, Lyra, Maya, Mia, Isla, Ava etc. No repeats but all very similar!

Olivia, Arthur, Wilfred

Arlo, Theo, Luca, Jude, Otis, Rudy, Sonny are the stand out more trendy boy names around here at the moment. Still a good number of baby Oliver / Jack / Freddie / Alfie / Leo as there have been for several years. The other one that has surprised me is that I’ve met two babies called Rome in the last 6 months. I’d never heard of someone called Rome before then.

Girls the more trendy feeling names here are Mabel, Clara, Maeve, Esme, Orla, Alba, Nova. also still lots of ie names that blend a bit, Nellie, Rosie, Mollie, Tillie, Evie, Annie, Gracie etc.

Mushroo · 20/06/2024 22:52

Names like Eva, Evelyn, Ava, Amelia (that’s actually half of my antenatal group and I get them confused as their so similar.

Boys I’ve noticed quite a few Ezra’s.

Out of interest, where are you based? I have a Jude (10mo) in SE and we've only come across one in classes although aware it's popular online!
