Ok, so I was a little bored one evening, and I scanned the 12,000 PDF books created so far and looked at the most popular names that have been entered so far in 2015, to create a personalised book. These are, of course, not all baby names, as our book generally has a reading age of up to 8 years old. However, it is very popular as a christening gift or baby keepsake, so this data should represent a good indication of modern trends in baby and toddler names.
For my next blog I am going to look at more unusual names we are finding, but here are the popular ones issued by the Wizard on Given Mountain so far this year;
Boys | Girls |
Alexander | Amelia |
Aiden | Bella |
Alfie | Charlotte |
Archie | Chloe |
Benjamin | Daisy |
Caleb | Ella |
Charlie | Elsie |
Connor | Emily |
Daniel | Emma |
Dylan | Evelyn |
Ethan | Evie |
Finley | Florence |
Francis | Freya |
Freddie | Grace |
Harry | Isabelle |
Harley | Isla |
Henry | Jessica |
Isaac | Layla |
Jack | Lily |
Jacob | Lucy |
Joshua | Madison |
Lucas | Martha |
Mason | Millie |
Noah | Olivia |
Oliver | Phoebe |
Samuel | Poppy |
William | Scarlett |

And who is receiving a My Given Name book so far this year? Well girls are the clear winners with 55% of orders. We also personalise our books by ethnicity to make them truly inclusive, and I am pleased to say this feature has proven popular to date with 23% of books being ordered with characters other than a European White character. We are even more proud to say 100% have been reviewed with 5 stars on our own Trust Pilot reviews and those of our partner sites.
