Namewise

Most popular baby names in New South Wales, Australia (1983)

The rankings exactly as NSW Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages published them for 1983. New South Wales, Australiapublishes a girls' list and a boys' list separately, so they are shown separately — there is no official combined ranking, and Namewise does not invent one.

This source has published 74 complete rankings, from 1952 to 2025. Data sources · Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Australia (CC BY 3.0 AU)
