I live in Scotland, so it's likely we're living among very different trends! Lauren is consistently overused here - and has been for about 20 years. Claire has simmered down now, but there are so many of my own age. (I'm 19.)

Thanks for the info. Interesting to hear the trends in other countries. I love your name and its spelling. Do you go by Elinor or a nn?

Thanks! It's funny, I go by Elinor on here, but in real life I rarely use it. My friends christened me Elle years ago, and it has stuck.

I'm not a great fan of my name, but I do like the spelling, which my mum chose after "Sense and Sensibility" :-)
