Olivia and Jack Top UK Baby Names

Last month we posted Babycenter’s top names of 2008, now internet parenting group Bounty has released their list of popular baby names compiled from parents of 380,000 babies born in 2008.

Olivia and Jack came up on top, according to the parenting club.

While the top boy’s name has remained the same for 14 years, Olivia toppled Grace at the top of the girl’s list.
