Babies' given names
Dear Immigration Department,
A number of countries provide statistics and trends regarding the names given by parents to their children. Would it be possible to get access to the frequency of given names (Chinese and English) for all newborn babies in Hong Kong, year by year?
Yours faithfully,
Alex V
