The most popular baby names in Harrow last year were David for boys and Sofia for girls, according to the Office of National Statistics.

Last year 3,695 babies were born in the area, 1,859 boys and 1,836 girls.

Parents in Harrow didn't follow the national baby-naming trend for boys, with Oliver failing to make the top spot.

Olivia, the nation's favourite name for girls, also didn't top the charts for Harrow parents last year.

The second most popular name for boys was Muhammad.

For baby girls, Maya took second place.

Nick Stripe, of the ONS, said: "Although Oliver and Olivia remained the most popular baby names in 2017, some fascinating changes took place beneath them.

"Leo entered the boys' top 10 for the first time, whilst Hunter rocketed into the top 100, also for the first time, reaching number 78.

"Sarah, the most popular name for baby girls throughout much of the 1970s and 1980s, dropped out of the top 100 for the first time since our records began in 1904. Brand new entries into the top 100 for girls include the names Aurora and Hallie."

In England and Wales, royal references continue with Harry and George remaining the second and third most popular names respectively since 2016.

Amelia was the second most popular name for girls, with Isla moving up to third place.

Nearly 700,000 babies were born last year in England and Wales and over 63,000 unique baby names were registered.

There were six new names in the 100 most popular girls' names - Aurora, Orla, Edith, Bonnie, Lyla and Hallie.
