    Amelia, Emily, Olivia, Jack, Benjamin, William the most popular names for children according to Herald birth notices


    The name Catherine has disappeared from New Zealand's top 10 most popular names list for the first time in 20 years.

    The lists are compiled by Eleanor Burkin from birth notices in the Herald.

    The most widely chosen names for girls were Amelia, Emily, Olivia, Ruby, Lily, Sophie, Charlotte, Kate, Isabella and Isobelle. For boys it was Jack, Benjamin, William, Oliver, James, Max, Alexander, Joshua, Jacob and Liam.

    More off-beat monikers included Capri and Tokyo-Rose for girls and Cailean, Rexton and Jacan for boys.
