England and Wales withhold any name given to fewer than three babies in a year. Scotland and Northern Ireland publish separately and are not included here. Change compares 2025 with 2024 in the same country, for the same sex. Data & sources.

Want what changed? Rising and falling names ranks the same records by how many more or fewer children were given each name, with both counts shown.

Looking the other way? Rare baby names ranks the same records from the bottom — the names given to a handful of children in 2025 rather than thousands.
