Felix and Iris are both in the top 100 this year for the first time ever - we must be trend-setters!

None of mine are on there. Although Muhammad is on there and how many of them do you know?

Re: Top Baby Names 2012
There's a Mohammed in Felix's class. Reading about how they compiled the charts they take into account all the variations of a name, so Muhammad, Mohamed, Mohammed etc. would all be the same name. A lot of Muslim boys are given the name Mohammed but go by another name - the boy in Felix's class is known as Abdullah.
Re: Top Baby Names 2012
I know quite a few Mohammed's actually! Well - both of mine in the top 10! No surprises there!
Re: Top Baby Names 2012
Hah - how funny - and if we did ever go on to have a girl then our name choice is third on the list! Could I be any more boring! LOL! No - I love the names we chose - doesn't bother me that they are 'popular'!

Re: Top Baby Names 2012
It doesn't bother most people. If they like a name they choose it simple as but I would hate it if mine were in that list but that's just me!
Re: Top Baby Names 2012
Charli doesn't list in there (she's not a Charlotte, so no appearance there!)
And the girls' name we have isn't in the list, and the boy's name is, but not high, and is spelt different

Borderline hippie, intersectional feminista, SJKW and general grump!
Re: Top Baby Names 2012
Mia is 10th - when we named her we never knew any other girls by that name but is definately more common now.
Mason is way down the boys name list but then I like the fact it isnt such a common name.

Mum to Mia & Mason, wife to Steve - life is for living.

Funnily enough I think Mason was the top US boy's name this year, though not as popular over here.
