The most popular baby boy and girl names for 2020 - 7NEWS.com.au

Gone are the days where Karen and Steve were common names for expectant Australian parents.

According to data collected by research group McCrindle, the top baby names for 2020 are once again Charlotte (for a girl) and Oliver (for a boy).

Charlotte has been the most popular girls’ name for seven of the last 10 years, beating the name Olivia every year since 2015 – the same year that Princess Charlotte was born.

Oliver, meanwhile, has been the number one boys’ name in Australia for the last seven years since overtaking Jack back in 2013.

In the last year, 1,609 baby girls were named Charlotte while 2,206 newborn boys were called Oliver.

The Top 10 baby girls names haven’t changed in the last 12 months.
