Top 100 English Girls' Names 2021

American name data releases in May. English name data follows in early Fall. Perhaps it just happened.

Three new girls' names entered the top 10. Freya, Florence, and Willow replaced Isabella, Rosie, and Sophia. Regarding the top 100, Beatrice, Lara, and Sara replaced Georgia, Abigail, and Aisha. It's interesting to note that none of these names were new to the top 100 overall over the last twenty years.

Hazel

In the Northern Hemisphere, there is a common broadleaf tree. It produces nuts with a certain shade of brown. The tree and nut have one name in common: Hazel.
