That's because it's a classic name. Neither of my 2 on list(well spelling anyway!) However my friends Lo goes to a welsh school,and out of 29 children there are 9 Tomos's!!!!!!! So my son is common too!!!!!

my son is called Jack Oliver.  Oliver was my dad's name, and i told him before he died that if i ever had another boy, i would give him Oliver a a middle name.  i was glad i was able to keep my word.

Harry's right up there,common as muck.When he was born Harry wasn't as common.Then Harry Potter came out.Erin's at 21 so a bit popular for my liking,and Matilda got a 58 I think.Arthur and Merlin are there but not in the top 100,and apparently Arwen doesn't exist,didn't find Bridie either.

I wouldn't choose names because they're popular.

I cant believe arwens not around, i know of 3, ones my age, i love the name!

I love the name jack but regret it as its so common, its not gonna be much fun for him in school! I was one of 3 lauras in my class and that was tedious! being called laura head for most of my school life, grrr! I picked lola mainly becasue it wasnt common yet its 47!!!

My sister has 2 erins in her nursery class, and a moses!

My cousin has a friend called jesus!

All the babies being 'announced' in our papers seem to be britneys kenzies or jaydens, oh and kaydens!

Erin had another Erin in her class.

There are three Harrys in our school.You tend to notice cos they tend to be the ones being yelled at in the playground.There's actually a Harry Arthur who was in reception last year when Arthur was in nursery  and they share a classroom so it was a little confusing for Arthur.

We had 4 Joannes and a Joseph in our year at school,all aka Jo(e).Sometimes confusing

ruby was very popular when i was in hosp with jack, didnt help my midwife kept singing kaiser chiefs ruby ruby ruby RUBY!! lalalalalala!!! she drove me nuts!!! not  a fan of gracie, sounds like something youd say to cute up the name grace occasionally not as a permanant name!

I met a lovely little old lady sat waiting at the chemist in boots, lolas ill again so i was getting calpol etc and of course parentts are sooo thick now its over the counter, anyway, i said something to lola and the little old lady sayes, thats a beautiful name, ive never met another lola before, it was her name too and she was so touched shed met another i sat talking to her for ages! ive had so many negative reactions to her name it was so nice to get a smile for once!

Rachel- if jack gets to confused you may get some new neighbours

New neighbours??? Am I being my usual dense self????!!!!!!!!!

Gracie is sooo sweet,not a huge fan of name but she was born at 26weeks-you want to see how dainty she is,jc looks like a monster next to her and she's older!!!!!! She's ginger and a right tough nut!!!!! They make a wonderful couple!!!!!!!!

New girl at playgroup called Maddy,I quite like that.

I'd like Erin,Alys or Mali for a girl,doubt I'll ever get 1 but had those picked out last time!!!
