The overall most popular names in the country were revealed to be Fiadh for girls and Jack for boys.
Jack has reportedly held the top spot since 2007, with the exception of 2016 when James was the most popular boys name.
It's the first time Fiadh has taken the overall number one spot for girls.
There were several new entries to the Top 100 list, including Hunter, Páidí, Brody, Arlo and Tiernan for boys, and Lottie, Ayla and Indie for girls.
