Maternity hospital reveals the top baby names of 2017

A maternity hospital has revealed its most popular baby names of 2017, with surprisingly traditional monikers topping the charts.

Queensland’s Greenslopes Private Hospital rounded up the top names ranging from traditional to modern after delivering more than 1,000 babies this year. 

And unsurprisingly, old favourite Olivia took the lead for the girls name at the Brisbane ward, followed by Zara, Zoe, Addison and Ava.

After taking the top spot around the world for the most popular name in 2015, Charlotte has been bumped down to seventh place.

For the boys, the names were quite traditional.

There was a four-way tie for first place between Harrison, Henry, Oliver and William, followed by Liam, Charlie and Jacob.

Greenslopes maternity services manager Raechel Frost said parents seem to have taken inspiration from celebrities or movies.

American actor Harrison Ford could likely inspire the popularity of the name Harrison

‘People get their influences from everywhere, and is a huge phenomenon so it could well be an influencer,’ she told The Courier Mail.

The boys’ name Arlo sprung into the top 20, likely inspired by the main character in Disney movie The Good Dinosaur.

Ms Frost added there had also been an increasing trend of parents adding a modern twist to traditional names such as Adalyn instead of Adeline.
