The most popular baby girl names of 2018:
1) Olivia
No surprise here, this name means 'olive' and has been around in England since 13th century. This name has now beat Amelia to the top spot! 
2) Amelia
This name derives from old Germanic word 'amal' meaning 'work', 'ferilte', and 'industrious'. 
3) Emily
Endearing as it sounds, it actually is most likely to mean 'rival'. Up two places from last year! 
4) Isla
Once again, as you guessed, it means 'island'. A very popular name in Scotland where it originated from. 
5) Ava
The Biblical meaning of this name is 'iniquity'. However, there is also a Persian background, meaning 'sound' and 'voice'. 
6) Isabella
In most languages, this one means 'devoted to God'. 
7) Lily
One of the most loved flower names across the world. 
8) Jessica
This name seems to have been by Shakespeare for the character of Shylock's daughter in The Merchant of Venice. 
9) Ella
Abbreviation of Ellen and Eleanor, both meaning ‘beautiful fairy’. 
10) Mia
It's common to think that has to do with the Italian word for 'mine', but actually it first came as a short for ancient Hebrew name Miriam which probably means 'beloved'. 
11) Sophia
Same as Sophie, but slightly firmer-sounding. Now more popular from the English version. 
12) Charlotte
A French one, female diminutive of Charles. Since Charles stands for a free man, this could mean ‘free woman’. Perhaps it's Princess Charlotte's adorable presence that has put this one up 13 places from 2015. 
13) Poppy
We don't need to tell you what it means, do we? Another lovely floral name. 
14) Grace
Originally, this name referred to divine grace.

One meaning of this name is the deep red colour, the other stands for a fine woollen cloth. 
18) Freya
That’s a name of the Scandinavian goddess of love. Also, in German, the related word Frau means ‘lady’.
