Now that all the official data is out, here are the most popular names from parenting website Baby Center Australia, which has expanded their list from a Top 20 to a Top 40. It counts up the birth announcements from the site’s members, so although it is a national list, it only gives you an idea of name trends amongst the type of parents who join parenting websites (which is really helpful if you happen to fit that demographic yourself). Unlike the data from states and territories, Baby Center combines spellings, so that Isabelle, Isabel, Isobel and Izobelle etc all count as one name
