Alfie seems to be really popular in England eh? I feel like I'm seeing it in England BAs a lot and I really don't understand the appeal at all. I like Hugo and Bella, but both are GPs. I love Imogen, and I wish people used it more here in Canada.

Yep. I'm always surprised if I see a set of BAs and no Alfie among them!About ten years ago when it had only just made it into the top 100 I liked it. It seemed fresh and a good way to potentially honour my granddad (although I doubt I'd have used it). Now though, I'm sick of seeing it and I can't help but associate it with badly behaved boys. I think I've seen too many little Alfies running riot in supermarkets and being yelled at by their mums which has put me off!

My cousin is 10 and he's called Alfie. When he was born I thought it was relatively unusual - I'd never met an Alfie before. Now there are loads of them, I guess he was at the beginning of the trend.The same happened with his younger brother, Harvey, whose name is also pretty common in the UK now.

I love Hugo George & Alfred David Nelson, and Adam Peter & Harry Ivan are good too.

Pretty good bunch! I like Esme and Eva, but together they're a bit too similar as they're both short and beginning with E.I love Juliet Elizabeth May!

Otis Valentino is so wonderfully mismatched, it works . I'm going to allow it.Hugo George is my second favorite.

Cool to see Alfred David Nelson, Otis Valentine (and Cecile and Emilius!), Esme Eva and Juliet Elizabeth May.I know it's overused but Jack William as a combo is always nice. That whole girls' list is so sickly sweet, goodness. Can't say I care for any of them too much. I like Isabel, but only this spelling - I find Isabelle crazy frilly. Imogen is nice but Imogen Rose puts me to sleep.I think the worst one there might be Rosie Mary-Jane. How much better would Rosemary Jane be though! What a missed opportunity. :( smh at those parents.
