With Christmas and a new year on the horizon there will be a number of end of year lists published in the coming weeks including everyone’s favourite – baby names.
BabyCentre, the UK’s most trusted parenting site, has revealed the country’s most popular baby names, including a top 100 list for boys and girls.
On top of this, they’ve even listed names falling out of fashion and at risk of going extinct.
Noah, Oliver and Mohammed remain popular names for boys while Olivia, Sophie and Lily are consistently chosen for parents of baby girls.
Although it’s bad news for anyone named Roger, Clifford and Clive with their name at risk of going extinct.
While Maud, Muriel and Tina seem to be unpopular names for girls.
