The most popular baby names in Northern Territory have been released.
According to NT’s Department of the Attorney-General and Justice, the top names were William for boys and Chloe for girls.

These actually began as top 20 lists, but the numbers were so low that I condensed them. (Of Australia’s eight regions, NT is the third-largest by area, yet the least populated.)
