Britain's most popular baby names of 2008 were Olivia for a girl and, once again, Jack for a boy, according to the annual survey by the Bounty parenting club.

It is the fourteenth year on the trot that Jack has topped the polls for baby boys.

This year, however, Oliver came a very close second - opening the prospect of almost the identical name topping both boys' and girls' charts.

The name Olivia, used by Shakespeare for one of his heroines in Twelfth Night, means olive tree, and comes from the same Latin root as Oliver, the boy's equivalent.

There has been a return to silver screen glamour as names inspired by Hollywood, such as Sofia, Julia, Darcy and Amelie, have all shown a revival, according to researchers who analysed the trends in this year's baby names.

The name Amy meanwhile fell in popularity down to 23rd in the list, possibly mirroring the declining personal fortunes of the singer Amy Winehouse, who has battled drug and health problems.

Blake, the first name of Winehouse's husband Blake Fielder-Civil, has however entered the top 100 boys' names for the first time.

Mums over the age of 40 were more likely to choose traditional names such as William, Thomas, Joshua and Harry.

Younger mums, by contrast, were the most prone to take their cue from the names of celebrities, choosing boys' names such as Jayden, Tyler, Lewis, Ryan and Dylan.

Theo, inspired by England's teenage football hero Theo Walcott, rose 12 places to take the number 58 spot for boys.

Celebrity influence also made itself felt for baby girls. Ruby, chosen by singer and TV presenter Charlotte Church for her daughter, is this year's second most popular girl's name, while Ava, the name of Myleene Klass's baby, leapt 15 places to number 19.

British mums seemed however to have drawn the line at imitating the name of Tom Cruise's baby daughter Suri, or Angelina Jolie's baby Shiloh, and so far there have been no reports of a UK surge in popularity in the name Barack, in homage to the new US President.

Faye Mingo, of www.bounty.com, said that researchers were also not expecting to see extra interest in the name Malcolm, picked by Ulrika Jonsson for her fourth child born in June.

"The name was her husband's choice, and while she apparently told him that Malcolm was not a cool name she gradually warmed to the idea," said Ms Mingo.

"Boy's names have witnessed the biggest changes over the last decade as parents are increasingly influenced by American culture and celebrity trends relating to films and sports personalities.

"Some parents want a name that's totally unique, and names such as Zebedee, Selim and Zenon are now emerging and growing in popularity.


"In the girls' top 100 only Victoria and Elizabeth take their influence from royalty, and modern day princess like Beatrice, Eugenie and Zara don't even feature in the charts."

The girls' names which experienced the biggest surges in popularity were Isla, which jumped 23 places to number 35, and Summer, which leapt 28 places to number 16.

Hollie, Tegan, Patrick, Dominic and Gabriel all fell out of the top 100 lists.

根據(jù)育嬰俱樂部年度報(bào)告指出, 2008年英國最受歡迎的女嬰名為奧莉維亞Olivia, 杰克Jack則再一次榮登年度最受歡迎男嬰姓名.

杰克已連續(xù)14年獲得最受歡迎男嬰姓名的殊榮

不過今年第二名的奧利弗Oliver不讓杰克專美于前, 緊緊跟在其后    甚有希望在來年與其系出同一語源的女嬰名奧莉維亞Olivia雙雙奪得男女嬰的排名金榜

奧莉維亞Olivia, 是莎士比亞第十二夜戲劇中的女英雄之一, 意為橄欖樹, 與男嬰名的奧利弗Oliver同出于拉丁字根

針對今年新生兒命名的研究指出, 受好萊塢電影光環(huán)的影響, 諸如索菲婭Sofia, 茱麗亞Julia, 達(dá)茜Darcy與亞美莉亞Amelie等命名有攀升的趨勢

同時(shí)間, 艾米Amy的排名則下滑至23, 或許這正反映逐漸走下坡的歌手艾米.懷豪斯的景況. 她正面臨與藥物纏斗及健康因素的挑戰(zhàn)

布萊克Blake. 艾米. 懷豪斯丈夫的名, 也總算首次擠進(jìn)前百大命名之列

四十歲以上的媽媽在為新生兒取名時(shí)較頃向于傳統(tǒng)的名字, 如威廉William, 湯馬斯Thomas, 約書亞Joshua與哈利Harry

相較之下, 年青的媽媽在取名時(shí)則較偏向時(shí)下名人的名字, 如杰登Jayden, 泰勒Tyler, 雷恩Ryan與戴蘭Dylan

吉?dú)WTheo, 受到少年足球明星吉?dú)W.沃考特的盛名影響, 在男嬰的命名排名上竄升12位到第58

女嬰的排名也同樣受到名人的影響. 魯比Ruby, 就因?yàn)槊枋旨骐娨暪?jié)目主持人夏洛特. 丘區(qū)為她女兒取名魯比而高居女嬰排行榜第二位. 然而由于麥里尼. 克拉西為其女命名為埃爾娃Ava, 致使該名字由15位下滑至第19

不過英國的媽咪在為寶貝取名時(shí)似乎仍有其底限, 她們不會刻意模仿如湯姆.克魯斯的女兒蘇  Suri, 或是安潔麗娜.裘莉的寶寶席羅Shiloh, 更無報(bào)導(dǎo)顯示這些英國媽咪會為了向新任美國總統(tǒng)表示敬意, 而一股腦地將新生兒取名巴羅克Barack

育嬰網(wǎng)站的菲  .  果指出, 研究報(bào)告顯示, 對于馬爾可Malcolm, 也就是今年六月烏莉卡.裘森為其第四個(gè)嬰兒所取的名字并為受到如預(yù)期般的追捧.

  果女士說: 馬爾可是烏莉卡的先生取的, 雖然一開始烏莉卡并不認(rèn)為這名字夠酷炫, 不過她還是漸漸地習(xí)慣了這名字

男嬰的命名趨勢正見證了近十年來, 雙親在為新生兒取名時(shí)受到美式文化, 電影名人與運(yùn)動(dòng)明星的影響

“有些父母想給孩子取個(gè)獨(dú)一無二的名字, 因此像是哲貝迪Zebedee, 瑟林姆Selim與哲儂Zenon這些少見的名字也越來越受歡迎"

“女嬰名前一百位中僅有維多利亞Victoria與伊麗莎白Elizabeth是源自于皇家貴族, 而現(xiàn)代的公主名如畢翠斯Beatrice, 尤詹妮Eugenie與薩拉Zara則根本進(jìn)不到排行榜.

女嬰名中起伏最大的要算是伊斯拉Isla與薩莫Summer, 前者上升23位到第35, 后者則從第28晉升到第16位.

豪列Hollie, 泰更Tegan, 派屈克Patrick, 多明尼克Dominic與加柏利夫等名字則跌出100大之列

1. 杰克; 奧莉維亞


2. 奧利弗; 魯比


3. 哈利; 格雷斯


4. 查理, 埃米莉


5. 艾爾非, 潔西卡


6. 湯瑪斯, 蘇菲


7. 約書亞; 科爾


8. 丹尼爾; 莉莉


9. 詹姆斯; 米亞


10. 威廉; 露西
