Popular baby names in England (2007)

I've updated the Baby Name Map with the most popular baby names in England for 2007. Grace edged out Ruby for the top spot among the girls, while the top 5 boys remained Jack, Thomas, Oliver, Joshua, and Harry. However, when you combine all the various spellings of Mohammed, it moves into second spot behind Jack. This fact made a bit of a stir in the press. Like Wales, England also does not publish actual name counts, just rankings so I am not able to show popularity charts for English names unfortunately.
