The Department of Internal Affairs has released the top 10 boys' and girls' names for 2016 - and there's little change in the top three choices.
Olivia and Charlotte remain the most favoured choice of names for girls for the second straight year, but Harper loses favour to Isla.
If you're a parent of a boy you were likely to have opted for Oliver, Jack and William. James slips a place to fifth, replaced by Mason.
About 61,000 births were recorded in 2016.
The top 100 names make up only a small proportion of all names given to babies, as more than 18,000 unique first names were registered for children born last year.
