  1. Kia Ora Mele,

    Cadence here from the Summer Learning Journey team! How are you going?

    You have made a great start for this post, ka pai! So I can give you full points, are you able to elaborate a little bit more on this post?
    Which are the most common girl names you often hear? And which are the most common names you hear for boys?

    For example:
    When I was at school, the most common female names were Cailtin, Danielle and Madison. The most popular boy names were Sam, Jordan and Caleb.

    Hope to hear from you soon.

    Cadence :)
