Help[Facts] Re: Names that would have been popular...
in reply to a message by BellamynSora
The earliest year of data publication on popular girls' names available at National Statistics is 1998:

and from what I can remember, the names hadn't changed drastically from those which were popular in the early 90s. I'd say from my own experience that middle-to-upper class parents tend to choose traditional or unusual classics over 'trendy' names. Chloe, Emily, Sophie, Charlotte, Lucy, Sarah and Alice are all pretty safe bets.
