Data Skills Test

I found a set of data by using the guardian data store website and imported it into microsoft excel. The bar chart below has been made by cutting down an amount of data recorded by the office for national statistics across England and Wales for the 100 most commonly used baby boy and girl names in 2011. As you can see below I have selected to use 25 of only the girls names used in 2011 and show how they rank, which can be seen in this chart.



 

The bar charts findings show that Amelia was the most commonly used name in 2011 across England and Wales, with 5054 babies born being called by this name. The name Amelia most recently entered the top ten in 2008.

For the full data, of 100 baby girl and boy names recorded in 2011, from the office for national statistics see here
