List of all the names registered last year.

[Ineedsomesleep]

Someone posted a link a while ago to a list of all the baby names registered last year.

Could someone give me the link again please.

Thanks Mrs Woolf, but doee that link just give the Top 100?

The link I was after gave all the names registered, including one girl named Peppa. I kid you not.

Are the 2009 names available now?

I googled ONS to find the 2008 list. They've got all the names that have been used for 3 children or more.

Thanks Mrs Woolf, thats the one.

Will forward it onto my Cousin who is having a baby.

Love the fact that Whitney, Joyce and Hayden (for girls) are equally popular with 37 each!

263 Kevins!

That is alot of Kevins. Has anyone met a baby Kevin?

Number 318 on the girls list...149 people called their little girl Wiktoria

Thats Polish for Victoria ongobongo

Think it's Polish ongobongo.

It is Polish, think that Oliwer is too.

I know of somebody who has a Kevin but she is american.

That sounds awful. I don't mean, she's american so that explains everything. I think it sounds less jaded over there. Like a refreshing underused classic saints name (trying to imagine HOW she chose it!)

Well aren't there several American actors named Kevin? And no one particularly goes ugh Kevin when they see them in a movie. Have an old school friend Kyle, another name I have seen as - the dread 'ch' word - on here, and he now lives on the west coast of the States where I bet the name is fine (and I'm just jealous!).

2008 was not last year!

Yes thanks Mama, I am aware that 2008 wasn't last year. Which is quite an achievement for me as I am over 40 and have 2 young children and a liking for wine.

The lists for 2009 haven't been released yet as far as I am aware.

Just noticed that 65 people also named their daughter Pheobe!! Unbelievable. Phoebe is beautiful but 'Fee obe' - is really something else

Are the 2007 stats still online anywhere?

I looked at this list a few months ago when trying (desperately) to find a name for potential DD. Fortunately had a DD. Anyway, I remember chucking heartily at the three Hermoine's [sic] and several other obvious spelling errors. Wondered whether the mistakes were made by the parents or by the registrars.

chucking should = chuckling.

That'll teach me to be all judgy-pants,

Is the 2007 list anywhere. I would love to see where dds name comes.

I know two little Kevins and they are both Polish. Maybe the influx of Poles to the UK has affected baby name trends? interesting.

Why are names like Madison and Courtney so popular? Vile.
