Last updated 24th Feb 2022
We've already told you the top names predicted for 2022, but what about the baby names that are about to go out of fashion? If you're pregnant or thinking of starting/extending your family any time soon, you need to keep reading!
Research carried out by Slingo shows the previously popular names that could be heading off the Top 100, as they've seen a huge drop in popularity over the last five years.
From names like Jayden, Scarlett and Harvey, to Royal-inspired names like Charles, Charlotte and William, none of these are as popular as they were back in 2016.
Check out the biggest consistent fallers in the Top 100 from 2016-2021:
