10 baby names you’ll love if you’re fed up with all the names that are super-popular right now

If you like Sophie, why not consider...

Worried about your kid ending up as one out of five kids in the class rocking the same moniker?

We hear you.

Certain names soar in popularity and remain topping the lists for a couple of years (Jack and Sophie, anyone?), meaning if your tot has a name that is very popular in and around the year they were born, chances are high they are going to be sharing that name with a few other kids in their creche and school class later.

However, there are ways around this, mama.

How about opting for something that sounds a lot like the name you like that is currently very popular instead? An alternative name, if you will.

Just take a look at these 10 alternatives for names popular right now:

1. If you like Emma…

why not consider Esme or Emmeline?

2. If you like Noah…

why not consider Koa or Neo?

3. If you like Sophia…

why not consider Serena or Safia?

4. If you like Mason…

why not consider Weston or Magnus?

5. If you like Liam…

why not consider Levi or Liev?

6. If you like Olivia…

why not consider Livia or Lucia?

7. If you like Jack…

why not consider Cal or Jonah?

8. If you like Harper…

9. If you like Henry…

10. If you like Ava…
