Top 100 British Baby Girl Names

When looking at the highest rising names in any given year, it is always more illuminating to look at the actual numbers of babies being named rather than the increase in rank.

Case in point, Lucifer has gained some media attention recently because it jumped from #2728 in 2019 to #1548 in 2020. An impressive leap of 1180 places! But in reality, this equates to seven boys increasing to fifteen. Significant in terms of the name itself and what it represents, but not particularly note-worthy in terms of a real-life upswing in popularity.

Ranks themselves can also be misleading. Both Olivia and Oliver might rank in the number one spot, but both have seen a decline in use in recent years. Both Olivia and Oliver had more babies given the names in 2000 (when they ranked at #8 and #14 respectively) than when both ranked #1 in 2020.

I have been busy crunching the data to find which names had the highest rise in birth count in 2020.

For girls, Maeve steals the show in first place but other notables are Arabic Mirha in ninth position -- perhaps inspired by Pakistani actress Sarah Razi who named her daughter Mirha in 2020 -- and other Arabic choices lower down such as Dua, Ayat, Hoorain, and Aiza to name a few. Mabel, Dua and Billie show popstar influence while literary Lyra was given a boost first by Michael Sheen (a blackboard with his daughter's name was shown in the background of most episodes of his lockdown drama Staged) and then by Ed Sheeran in September 2020.

For boys, Finley was the highest riser but slightly more news-worthy in the top ten is royal Archie and Sex Education's Otis , The highest riser outside of the top 100 wasStar Wars Kylo jumping over 300 places followed by Kobe , clearly inspired by the tragic death of Kobe Bryant. His daughter's name, Gianna , also ranked in 23rd place for girls.

Axel has made a significant rise in 2020 and I expect it to rise even further in 2021 now thatLittle Mix's Perrie Edwards and footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain named their son Axel in September this year.

Below is a run-down of the top 50 names that rose the most in birth count from 2019 to 2020 in England and Wales:

When looking at the names which decreased the most, it is interesting to note that 4/10 of the ten most decreased girls' and boys' names are names which rank in the top 10.

For the third year in a row, the Office for National Statistics have this year released detailed charts in their dataset of the most popular names according to the age of the mother.

As with the previous years, there is a broad pattern where younger mothers prefer modern names or diminutive names and older mothers prefer traditional choices. Tommy is in the Under 25 top 10 while Thomas is in the Over 35 top 10.

However, we should always be wary of broad generalisations. Anastasia, Dominic and Patrick appear exclusively for younger mothers, while more "modern" choices such as Lyra, Elodie and Otis are more popular for older mothers.

For every name that appears in a top 100 for each name bracket, the ONS have also released the rankings of that name in the other age groups for comparison. For example, Ottilie ranks at #96 for mothers aged30-34 but at #667 for mothers under 25.
I have added this information underneath.

I have also added the overall ranks in the first column for comparison and highlighted any names that are outside of the top 100 in the combined ranks.

In England, Otis, Milo, Hudson and Oakley were the highest risers for boys, and Maeve, Lyra, Mabel and Arabella the highest risers for girls.

In Wales, Kai, Sonny, Grayson, Ronnie, and Joey and were the highest risers for boys, and Elena, Orla, Lilly and Arya were the highest risers for girls.

* New entries to the top 100.

For the second year in a row, the Office for National Statistics have this year released detailed charts in their dataset of the most popular names according to the age of the mother.

According to the ONS: "For girls, only half of the top 10 names chosen by mothers aged under 25 years featured in the top 10 girls' names chosen by mothers aged 35 years and over. Mothers aged 35 years and over continued to choose more traditional names like Charlotte and Emily, while younger mothers opted for more modern names like Harper and Mia.

The trend continued with boys' names where younger mothers chose less traditional names or shortened versions of traditional names. Of the top 10 boys' names chosen by mothers aged under 25 years, seven had not featured in the top 100 boys' names prior to the late 1990s. In contrast, 8 out the top 10 boys' names selected by mothers aged 35 years and over had featured in the top 100 before the late 1990s, and only one name was a shortened version of a traditional name."

Below is are top 100 tables provided by the ONS for boys' and girls' names. I have added the overall ranks in the first column for comparison and highlighted any names that are outside of the top 100 in the combined ranks:

In England, Tommy, Chester, Hudson and Louis were the highest risers for boys, and Bonnie, Arabella, Hallie and Ada the highest risers for girls.

In Wales, Milo, Hari, Myles, Bobby, and Idris and were the highest risers for boys, and Skyla, Ayda, Frankie and Eleanor the highest risers for girls.

For the first time ever, the Office for National Statistics have this year released detailed charts in their dataset of the most popular names according to the age of the mother.

According to the ONS: "There are apparent age differences in name selection between older and younger mothers. More "traditional" names such as Alexander, Joshua, William, Thomas, Charlotte, Jessica and Sophie tend to be more popular among older mothers, especially those aged over 35 years. Whereas some of the more popular names chosen by mothers aged under 25 years are "non-traditional" names such as Hunter, Logan, Harper and Nevaeh.

"Shortened names for boys such as Archie, Alfie and Freddie were all in the top 10 for mothers aged under 25 years but were less popular among mothers aged over 35 years. Whereas the full spellings, such as Alfred and Frederick were more popular with older mothers.

"Hyphenated names also appeared to be a more popular choice among younger mothers. Mothers aged under 25 years were the only age group where hyphenated names for girls featured in the top 100. Amelia-Rose was ranked 83rd among mothers aged under 25 years and Ava-Rose was ranked 88th, but both names were outside of the top 200 in all other age groups."

There are certainly some striking differences. For example, Nevaeh ranked at #102 overall in England and Wales in 2018. But, for mothers under 25 it ranked #38 while for mother aged 35 and over it was only #183.

Below is are top 100 tables provided by the ONS for boys' and girls' names. I have added the overall ranks in the first column for comparison and highlighted any names that are outside of the top 100 in the combined ranks:

The Numbers :

This table was part of the ONS statistical bulletin which provides information on the number of different names registered to boys and girls and 2018:

This table from the same release demonstrates how increasingly less common it is to receive a "popular" name:

Seasonal Names :

Once again, Poppy and Holly prove to be popular seasonal favourites.

Poppy, ranked #11 overall, moved up to #5 in November, coinciding with Remembrance Day and the wearing of poppies.

Holly, ranked #23 overall, moved to #8 in December -- the only month in which it ranked in the top 10.

In England, Hunter, Ezra, Grayson and Finn were the highest risers for boys, and Margot, Delilah, Ada and Mila the highest risers for girls.

In Wales, Chester, Cooper, Grayson, Tommy and Jasper and were the highest risers for boys, and Ada, Cora, Mabli, Annabelle and Lois the highest risers for girls.

1700 - William III (famously known as William of Orange) is on the throne. This year, William Congreve's comedy The Way of the World is first performed in London and an English translation of the novel Don Quixote is first published.

Below are the top 50 first names for boys and girls born in 1700 in England and Wales according to Leslie Dunkling inThe Guinness Book of Names, 6th Edition (1993).

Please note: Statutory birth registrations in England and Wales came into effect mid-1837 so there is no official data prior to this. Dunkling does not explain where the above data is taken from or how large the data range is. Is it from a single parish? A whole county? Several parishes across England and Wales?

However, the top half of this list, at least, is very similar to Smith-Bannister's top 50 for 1690-1700 from forty English parishes, taken from "family reconstitution data and evidence from records of baptism (sometimes birth) detailed in parish registers and a sample size of 122,710."

Notable differences appear in the bottom half of the lists, especially the female names:-

Names in Smith-Bannister's top 50 (1690-1700), but not in Dunkling's top 50 (1700) :

Jonas (#36), Cornelius (#39), Cuthbert (#43), Solomon #43), Rose (#26), Thomasin (#28), Joyce (#31),Abigail (#34), Patience (#34), Hester* (#36), Mercy (#38), Wilmot (#38), Christian (#41), Easter* (#41), Rosamund (#41), Beatrice (#46), Edith (#46), Grisel (#46), Ursula (#46)

* Dunkling may have combined Hester and Easter with Esther.

Names in Dunklings top 50 (above) but not in Smith-Bannister's top 50 (1690-1700) :

Hugh* (#27) Nathaniel* (#39), Aaron* (#41), Jeremy* (#42),Owen† (#43), Mark*, Martin* (#47), Josiah* (#48), Luke* (#49), Harry ^‡ (#50) Jenny ^‡ (#32), Fanny ^‡ (#35), Betty ^‡ (#37), Eliza ^‡ (#37), Nancy ^‡ (#37), Emma* (#40), Charlotte (#41), Sally ^‡ (#42), Harriet (#44), Jemima (#44), Kitty ^‡ (#44), Mary Ann ^‡ (#44), Caroline (#48), Peggy ^‡ (#48), Sophia (#48)

* All of these names appear in earlier years for Smith-Bannister's rankings so were certainly in use.
† Smith-Bannister only looks at English data; Owen was most likely from Welsh data Dunkling gathered.
^‡ Smith-Bannister may have combined these diminutives with their parent-forms (Henry, Jane, Frances, Elizabeth, Ann, Sarah, Catherine and Margaret)

If you named your son Rupert in 2017, chances are you live in the south of England, according to newly released data from the Office for National Statistics. If you know a few little Laytons, perhaps you live in the North East.
The data release lists all the names given to three or more babies ranked according to popularity solely within the nine official regions of England, and also Wales.

In this post, I have identified all the names which appeared in the top 100 of each individual region that did not rank in the overall top 100 for England and Wales combined.
