This is for babies registered in 2010. How old are you? Sure the popular names were different in your generation.

Turning 11 months old ;-)

I have found it strange that there seems to be a recent trend of parents selecting surnames as their child's christian name, e.g. Hunter, Connor, Jackson, Taylor. It just sounds weird.

Heh I knew 2 brothers who were Hunter and Connor. Can't remember their surname tho.

My girls are Aishling and Eowyn. Not likely to show up on the NZ top 100 anytime soon, tho Aishling (or its original Aislinn) is usually top 10 in Ireland.

We went like this. he went like that. I say "Where'd he go?" Hollywood says "Where'd WHO go?!"

Top 15 every year for the last 6.... not bad.

EDIT: Every year since 1999.... Even better.
