This package contains five datasets:

* `ewbabynames`: For each year from 1996 to 2020, the number of children of each sex given each name in England and Wales. All names with more than 3 uses are included. Provided by the UK Office of National Statistics.

* `nibabynames`: For each year from 1997 to 2020, the number of children of each sex given each name in Northern Ireland. Provided by the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency.

* `scotbabynames`: For each year from 1974 to 2020, the number of children of each sex given each name in Scotland. Provided by the National Records of Scotland.

* `ukbabynames`: Each of the above datasets is bound into one dataset with an added nation column based on which dataset it came from.

* `rankings`: A longitudinal dataset containing the top-100 baby girl and top-100 baby boy names over the period 1904 to 1994, only in England and Wales.

It is inspired by Hadley Wickham's [**babynames**](https://cran.r-project.org/package=babynames) package.
