Oliver
As far as the most Popular Welsh Boys Names in 2018 is concerned, like the Huntingdon-born military politician who had this name of Medieval English and Old French origin, this name that is said to be of the Latin olivarius and thus means “olive tree planter,” Oliver has been reigning for quite a few years. It was again #1.
Noah
Surviving the flood of boys names to obtain second place of the Top 10 is Noah, which, ironically enough, was followed by Jacob, an originally Hebrew name that carries “to follow, to be behind” as a meaning of it.
George
Curious to know what was #4? Why, George, of course, while, having gone up several spots to take the 5th spot, Oscar makes a good showing.
Theo
Quite a few Welsh parents must have rightly deemed their little cooing baby boys as “God-given” for they went with the shortened form of Theodore, namely Theo. After this, so in 7th place, was Jack, a name that is actually a nickname for Jacob.
Leo
Now, the late Princess Diana’s two sons and her youngest son’s son fared fairly well, but, nonetheless were just beneath Leo (#10), which in turn was just beneath Charlie, which in turn was just beneath Alfie.
