What the record shows

Recorded by 2 registrars between 2011 and 2023, ranked in 10 years of that period.

Its highest recorded position is #718, first reached in 2012.

Its largest count from any one registrar is 12 births, registered in England and Wales in 2013.

Its record falls into 2 separate stretches, with a longest absence of 3 years.

A second registrar first ranked it in 2012, and 1 year separate the first registrar to record it from the last.

Every figure here is counted from the seven official registrars Namewise holds. A position is only ever a place within the list that published it, and a record that thins or stops is a fact about what registrars printed — never about how many children received the name.

Alekss and the names beside it

Two names in the same published list are measured on the same scale, in the same year, by the same registrar — so these are positions that genuinely passed each other, not a similarity judgement. Drawn from the 2,573 names with a recorded popularity standing (common, familiar, uncommon), so a name outside that set could have passed Alekss without appearing here.
