Is her name Olivia?
Harry has taken over from Oliver as the most popular boys' name in Britain.
The moniker, shared by hard partying Prince Harry and fictitious magician Harry Potter, knocked Oliver off its perch only a year after it bumped off Jack from the top spot, which it had held in first place for 16 years.
Jack, which was in second place in 2010 also leapt above Oliver, which slipped down to third place.
In the girls list Olivia kept top spot despite strong competition from Lily which climbed one place to second. Sophie slipped from second to third place.
Tommy was the biggest climber among the boy's names, springing from 131st place last year to 66th this time round, an improvement of 65 places. Jackson also made huge leaps, rising from 128th in 2010 to 75th.
Among the higher rankings, Riley is now becoming massively popular, climbing 16 spots from 25th to ninth place. Jenson, obviously inspired by the success of British F1 ace Jenson Button, rose 30 places from 99th to 69th.
Among the girls, Eliza is the biggest climber leaping from 141st to 84th. Willow also enjoyed a good year climbing 31 places from 108 to 77. Sofia rose from 78th to 53rd, while Julia, which has only been in the top 100 for five years, leapt 22 spots to 63rd.
Bella and Esme, characters played by Kristen James Stewart and Elizabeth Reaser respectively in teen Vampire films Twilight, have both risen well this year. Bella soared 27 places from 98 to 71 while Esme climbed 10 places from 82 to 72.
Amid the higher ranks Sophia, the name of Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch's daughter, climbed 14 spots to 14th place while Layla enjoyed similar success rising to 29th. Katie, Amy and Lauren are falling dramatically in the girls list while Cameron, Conor. Reece and Bailey are on the wane in the boys list.
The list was compiled from a national survey of 434,756 babies born to members of the Bounty Parenting Club in 2011.
Lisa Penney, spokesmum for Bounty.com said: ''Our records show that parents are continuing to be influenced by popular culture and celebrity fads.
“Today’s baby name trends are changing more quickly and names that seem relatively unusual and quirky can quickly become mainstream and common in the classroom.
“For example, ten years ago the name Ruby was relatively unheard of as a baby girl’s name, yet these days Ruby is regularly ranked in the top 10. Likewise for boys, a decade ago the name Riley would have rarely been considered, yet this year it’s also leapt into the top 10 most popular boys’ names.
“Common baby naming tips often warn against calling your baby something too trendy, unpronounceable or difficult to spell. But, in general whatever name you give your child they always grow up to make it their own.”
Surprisingly, Harriet has crept back into the top 100 girls' names moving up from 110th spot to 97th, while Elise is also a newcomer to the top 100, as is Emilia.
Girls names to drop out of the top 100 are Tia which fell 26 places to 101st, Scarlett fell 29 places to 103rd while Aimee dropped 27 places to 107th. New entries among the boys included Jackson at 75th place, Dexter at 79th and Rory at 85th.
In and around the top ten Daniel fell from ninth to 15th and Jacob, perhaps as a nod to Twilight's Jacob Black, crept in at number six from No 11 last year.
Boys’ names to disappear from the top 100 include Christopher, Ellis, Robert and Brandon.
