*The impact of the Crimean war can be seen in many of the names this year. Prince Menschikoff and Count Nesselrode were both influential Russian figures, while Alma (there were lots of Almas! Boys and girls) and Sebastepol were notable battles. In this year there was also a baby actually named Crimea. As they died in the same quarter, it is hard to tell the gender.
