DS in Year 3 has multiples of Violet, Florence, Reuben and Joshua.

DD in Reception has more than one Kit, Felix and Beatrice in her year.

How about yours?

So many Leos and Theos. Multiple Isabellas and a few Isabelles, Annabels and Anabellas

Amelia, variations of Mia/Mya and Isabella/Bella.
For the boys, a lot of Teddys and Freddys.

New Yr7 - many many girl names that can be shortened to either Izzy or Bella, three flavours of "Harry" names. Far fewer Theo/Leos, Maya/Mae and Elsa/Esme than in the previous class though.

My daughter is going into Y11 - I swear 90%of her friends have names ending with an -ee sound.

Lily, Milly, darcie, Evie, Alfie, Charlie, Kayleigh, Edie, Marcie…….
