man and woman
What is the most popular name in Australia?
Jack is on top when it comes to men.

Chloe is on top for women.

Or at least they were in 2006. I'll look around for newer information.
[Edit]
This one says Jack and Isabella in 2007, but it's only in New South Wales.

Another one with Jack And Ella at top. (Also from 2006)

Other pages list Emily, Isabella and Charlotte as top one for women. On the male side the only other name that comes up are Joshua.
Not that this is , of course, baby names and not the names of the whole population, that kind of information has proved to be harder to find.
[Edit3]
The Wiki gives links to government statistics in the different areas of Australia, but some don't work and others lists only baby names.

All names from 1929 can be searched by gender, birth year/decade and you can search it all. Doing a search for all names since 1929 you get John and Margaret.
