[name_u]Elijah[/name_u]— None, but a couple Eli’s.
[name_u]William[/name_u]— More than I can count. 3 are in my family alone (grandpa, two uncles).
[name_u]James[/name_u]— Also more than I can count, including 3 in my family and 1 of my friends.
[name_u]Benjamin[/name_u]— At least 3-4, probably more.
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m]— Not sure, maybe 1-2? I’ve met more people called [name_m]Luke[/name_m] than [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] and I’m not sure if any of them are Lucases.
[name_u]Henry[/name_u]— A few. I’m not sure exactly, but not as many as I might think. I don’t know any currently.
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m]— too many to count. [name_u]Alex[/name_u] is an incredibly popular name where I live.
Of the boys’ names, in my area I’d say [name_m]Alexander[/name_m], [name_u]James[/name_u], and [name_u]William[/name_u] are easily the most popular. They’re the ones I’d personally avoid using.
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]— At least 10.
[name_f]Emma[/name_f]— too many to count. There were 3 in my tiny graduating class of 45 at high school.
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]— 0! I’ve met couple Eva’s, an [name_f]Eve[/name_f], an [name_u]Avi[/name_u], an [name_f]Aya[/name_f], and an [name_f]Ada[/name_f], but never an [name_f]Ada[/name_f].
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]— 3?
[name_f]Sophia[/name_f]— too many to count, plus some Sophies.
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]— 1
[name_f]Isabella[/name_f]— I’ve lost count.
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]— probably 3-4
[name_u]Evelyn[/name_u]— 1 or 2
[name_u]Harper[/name_u]— 1 or 2
Of the girls’ names, [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] (and variants), [name_f]Olivia[/name_f], Sophia/Sophie, and [name_f]Emma[/name_f] are all wildly popular where I live. I’d avoid all due to popularity (but I actually am not a big fan of any of them).
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] - 5 maybe? and a few Charlies, but I don’t know all of their full names
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] - 3
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - so. many.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] - 2
[name_f]Mia[/name_f] - 1
[name_f]Ava[/name_f] - 4 (plus an [name_f]Eva[/name_f] who pronounces it like Ava)
[name_f]Grace[/name_f] - 4
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] - literally every second young girl I know is [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]. At least 15-20
[name_u]Willow[/name_u] - 0
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] - 4
Some of the names in other top 10s - [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] and [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] most notably - are a lot more popular in my age group, whereas most of the Islas and the like are younger, I think.
Boys:
[name_u]Oliver[/name_u] - 5-6?
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] - 1
[name_u]William[/name_u] - 7 or 8
[name_u]Jack[/name_u] - 2
[name_u]Leo[/name_u] - 0
[name_u]Henry[/name_u] - 0
[name_u]Charlie[/name_u] - 0
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m] - 5
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m] - 2
[name_u]Elijah[/name_u] - 3
I don’t meet many boys full stop so this honestly doesn’t surprise me Most of the William’s and Thomas’s are brothers of friends
[name_f]England[/name_f] & [name_m]Wales[/name_m]
(these numbers are more people I know personally rather than those I’ve overheard or met in passing as I can’t remember them all!)
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - too many to count
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] - 3

[name_m]Archie[/name_m] - 1
[name_u]Jack[/name_u] - 3
I’ve looked after so many children with these names that I cannot count them all! I’m only clear on the 4 Arthurs as I really like that name and there have been much less of them.
