Source 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.
The sum of the counts for individual names in Table 2 and Table 3 may not equal the count in Table 1; this is because births where the usual residence of mother was not stated at the time of registration have been excluded from the counts in Table 2 and Table 3.
Births where the usual residence of mother was outside of England and Wales and where the name was not stated have been excluded from these figures.
Births where the name was not stated have been included in the totals.
Figures are based on geography boundaries as of February 2026.
Names with a count of 2 or less have been redacted using S40 of the Freedom of Information Act in order to protect the confidentiality of individuals.
