[Facts] UK Popularity?
Where can I find a reliable listing of UK names by popularity pre-1960? Does one exist?

If you’re looking for names in general and not just their popularity list I also recommend the search feature on ancestry.com for English speaking countries. http://search.ancestry.com/search/
Also, if she doesn’t see this post you might send Pie a PM, since she always finds number of usages for really old records for any name used over 5 times.

From the UK Office for National Statistics:

I have this data on my website, with easier previous years' comparisons:
