TOP BRITISH BABY NAMES OF 2012

The 2012 list of top baby names in the UK has been released!  If you're an Anglophile "in the family way," you may want to go the British way when naming your little bundle of joy (or when naming your cat/dog/horse/bird/hermit crab).   Below, I have supplied the top 100 UK names, and for sake of comparison, I've also listed the top US names--as well as names popular in Victorian England.
