Top baby names for 2009

It looks like Stanley is moving up in England and Wales, now in 98th place:

95 EWAN 636
96 FREDERICK    635 new entry +6
97 MORGAN 634
98 JUDE 627 new entry +5
98 STANLEY 627    new entry +14
100 AUSTIN 626 new entry +60

You can check your name (and the top 100 girls' names) at The Office for National Statistics, or (while it's up) at The Guardian.
