THERE were 15 babies named Corbyn in the UK last year in a possible tribute to the hapless Labour leader, according to new figures.

The Office for National Statistics also revealed there were 31 children called Corben, as well as 19 little Corbins, and 18 Corbans.

Its annual report of the most popular names sees Oliver and Amelia top the lists for 2015, while Corbyn is the 1,586th most common.

But although it is an increase on 2014, when just 10 had the Labour leader’s surname as a first name, it seems he might not be inspiring a boom in baby Corbyns.

The ONS stats who there has been a steady number of new births registered with the name, with a high of 20 in 2008.

Meanwhile Amelia has been the most poplar girls name since 2011, and last year  there were 5,158 more.

In second was Olivia, with Emily third, Isla fourth and Ava fifth.
