For more information on past and present Baby Names please see the Baby Names webpage.

Notes:

These rankings have been produced using the exact spelling of the name given at birth registration. Similar names with different spellings have been counted separately.

Births where the name was not stated have been excluded from these figures. Of the 345,748 baby girls in the 2008 dataset, 17 were excluded for this reason.
