Two official datasets, carefully aligned
UK vs US Boys’ Name Trends
Direct ranks use 2025, the latest year present in both datasets. Recent direction uses 2023, 2024 and 2025 for the UK and 2023, 2024 and 2025 for the US.
UK data on this page covers England and Wales only (ONS); Scotland and Northern Ireland are not included.

These are observations, not forecasts.
A name that rose earlier in one country may be worth watching in the other, but the pattern does not guarantee a future rise.
