We've recently heard all about the most popular baby names that parents simply can't get enough of, thanks to ONS releasing their most up to the minute data. But little is often said about the monikers dropping to the other end of the scale.
There are many names that were once a hit with mums and dads that are now falling out of favour, with few newborns being given them. According to experts, this can mean the names are at risk of going 'extinct' if no new registrations for them are made - and your name could be one of them.
The team over at Pregnacare by Vitabiotics has analysed government data from 1996 to 2022 looking at the number of babies born with each name every year. They've then used this information to predict the names that will be the least popular in 2023.
