Jack was the most popular boy’s name by the length of the straight, with Oliver next best followed by Thomas, Leo and Lachlan.

Ethan, Samuel, Noah, Liam and William completed the top 10.

Piara Waters can lay claim to being the most fertile suburb in WA, with 50 babies born to HBF members in the suburb last year.

But there must be something in those Waters – only 18 of those 50 bubs were girls, with a whopping 32 boys.

Dianella was the next most fertile suburb, with 47 babies and the town of Australind in the south west had 46 bubs born.

Then came Canning Vale (41 babies), Landsdale (40 babies), Scarborough (37) and Duncraig (37).

Harrisdale (35), Como (33) and Innaloo (33) completed the top 10.
