Choosing your baby's name is one of the most personal - and pivotal - decisions a parent first makes, but ultimately you might have gone with one of the most popular picks that year.
The undertaking is no small thing as their name will stick by them for the rest of their life. Mum and dads to-be can go with the traditional or handpick something unique to help their kid stand out from the crowd.
Whichever path you take, the recently published list of the most popular baby names of 2021 in England and Wales will prove helpful. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has just released its annual report and it certainly makes for interesting reading. The list overlaps with Scotland's 2021 list which was released back in April.
