The top 100 UK baby names have been revealed and Olivia has topped the list once again as the nation's favourite baby girl name for the second year in row.
The adorable moniker was followed by Sophia in second place for another year while Ava moved up one spot to third for the BabyCentre's annual list.
The parenting website also found that the climate crisis and female footballers, including England's Lionesses Lucy (Bronze), Ellen (White) and Karen (Carney, Farley and Walker), had a big influence on baby names in 2019.
The list, which is collated after thousands of parents register their babies' names on the website, said earth-friendly names such as Forrest, Ivy, Willow, Holly, Jasmine, Iris and Olive have become popular with parents.

Senior editor of BabyCentre, Lorna Marsh shared: "As predicted in our 2019 half-year baby name results, eco-conscious parents also looked to climate campaigners for inspiration. David (Attenborough) continued its impressive climb, gaining 20 places to number 55.
"Outside the girls' top 100, registrations were up for Greta (Thunberg) and the number of babies called Jane (Fonda) more than trebled."
Also names influenced by musical films and children's favourite books such as The Lion King's Nala and Ally from Star Is Born were proving popular.
Lorna added: "It's been a year of blockbuster musical movies and this clearly struck a chord with BabyCentre parents, who found notes of inspiration in films ranging from Bohemian Rhapsody to The Lion King.
"Looking forward, we also wonder if Frozen fans are anticipating the sequel to the animated hit, as we're seeing an increase in babies named Elsa, Olaf, Hans and Anna."
Meanwhile, Freya proved to be a hit with parent and stormed an impressive 13 places to push Aria out of tenth position, while another new top 10 entry, Isabella, climbed three places to number nine.
The highest chart riser was Fatima, gaining 37 places to sit at number 57, while Zara also moved up 33 places to number 29.
Notably new entries for this year's list included Nur at number 45, Hallie at number 68 and Delilah at 88.
Aside from the girls, Muhammad held the top spot on the boy's list for another year while Noah and Leo sat comfortably in second and third place.
