Picking out baby names can be a very interesting, personal - and often frustrating - process for many parents-to-be, with plenty of research going into that one, all-important word.
Many parents will be keen to know how popular their choice is nationwide, but may not be aware that name popularity can differ drastically from region to region.
This Office for National Statistics (ONS) tool allows you to search for baby names in England and Wales, with separate searches for boys and girls, giving you an idea of how popular - or how unusual - your chosen name is within your local region compared with others.
