Mer de Noms

Female

Please not that this page is still under construction and will continue to be a work in progress for the forseeable future as I add more and more tables as and when I create them so don’t forget to check back to see the new names.

Here at Mer de Noms we put together popularity tables which cover the last eight years of the name’s rank and birth number in England&Wales to help you get an idea of whether it’s rising or falling in popularity. This page pulls together all of these tables for you to look through as you please, plus an extra few names I’ve yet to cover on the blog but I see made mention off enough for me to know people may be interested in them:

If you see any numbers you’re not sure about and want me to check them up, just say so below. I did these by hand myself, so there could be the odd error where I misread my handwriting. Apologies in advance.
