If you don’t move in aristocratic circles, you’re probably more at home with Oliver and Olivia which topped the charts of baby names last year – while Jaxon, Muhammad, Charlotte and Willow also surged in popularity.

Oliver was the most popular boy’s name for the fourth year in a row – although if all variations of Muhammad are grouped together that is more common.

Amelia lost the top spot for girls born in England and Wales after holding the number one ranking for five years.

Charlotte moved up 13 places to number 12 – probably reflecting the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s choice for their daughter in 2015.

Third in line to the throne, Prince George also saw his position reflected in his name’s third-place ranking.
