It can be hard to choose baby names, especially when there are so many pretty and unique ones out there.
Whatever the choice, there is typically a nationwide trend when it comes to baby names.
Old-fashioned or vintage names which once were popular often make their way back into the 21st century.
If you’re a lover of the autumnal weather, the pregnancy wellbeing experts at One Tribe have gathered a list of unique baby girl names becoming more popular in the UK.
The company used data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to help them with their research.
1. Ivy
The experts said: “Ivy is the most popular autumn-inspired baby girl name in the UK, with 2,195 baby girls born with the name in 2022 - higher than any other autumn-themed name on the list.
“A resilient and evergreen plant that thrives in many environments, Ivy evokes lush greenery that remains vibrant as autumn sets in.”
This name also reflects nature’s enduring beauty, symbolising strength and adaptability.
