You asked

Under the freedom of information act, could you please tell me how many babies each year individually were given the first name 'Fabian' from  the year 1995 to 2023 in England and Wales.

We said

Thank you for your request. 

This baby names comparison tool created using ONS birth registration data shows the number of babies born in England and Wales that were given the name Fabian from 1996 to 2021.
