What are the most popular name given to babies?

We've just named our baby boy (born 9th of Feb) Dylan (Welsh for sea god). If he was born a girl it would have been Giya (Mother earth)





Don't let other people influence you on the choice, we had a nightmare with family members having their opinion on names!





But we also found it easier once he was born and could see him, whichever I'm sure you will pick a great name, Good luck.

What are the most popular name given to babies?
Olivia and Jack were the most popular baby names in the UK in 2006.

It is interesting to see how popular films affected popular names.





The name "Madison" for girls basically did not exist until the movie "Splash" came out, now it is a top name.





The name "Keanu" for boys was unheard of until the movie "Speed" came out. It became more popular after "The Matrix" was released.
