Do you go for a solid, traditional name, or something more unusual? If you need some inspiration, look through the list of the top 100 boys’ names for 2008, compiled by Bounty.

In 2008, Jack headed the list for the 14th year in a row.

Blake, the first name of singer Amy Winehouse’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil, entered the top 100 boys’ names for the first time.

Soap fans may have been influenced by the naming of Oscar Branning in EastEnders, as the name has jumped up 25 places in the list.

And George, at number 11, could that be George Clooney fans marking their mark?

Is Harrison, at number 38, the result of Harrison Ford lovers?

Did Jamie Oliver influence a generation of us mums to name our little sons after him, with Oliver being number 2?

The factors behind names making the top 100 are anyone's guess - every mum and dad has their reasons!
