Regarding Little Hawk's comment in the very first post about Cora, I've just started work experience at a nursery today, and one of the little girls there (3 years old) is called Cora. We also have Maisy and Monique. As to the flower and plant names, I bet there's going to be a renaissance for Rose (if there hasn't been already), because of the Doctor Who character, and if you count variant spellings of Fern (Ferne, Fearne), that may well be popular some time due to the UK TV presenter Fearne Cotton. What I'd like to know is if Harry, Ron (or Ronald) and Hermione have increased in popularity in the wake of the Harry Potter books.
