That was a bit depressing, wasn’t it?
If you’re wondering how the list was compiled, it was all based on divorce statistics.
In the United Kingdom, the average age that a woman will get divorced is 42-years-old.
Using this, we then worked out that women who reach this age in 2016 will have been born in 1974.
We then used Google to find out the most popular baby girl names of that year, to work out the most likely names of women filing for divorce next year.
Obviously this is all based on statistics and averages, so please don’t read the names on the list as gospel.
