Nigel Smith, 56, landlord of the Fleece Inn in Bretforton, England, said he organized the Nigel Night event at the pub Sunday in response to learning that no babies named Nigel had been registered in Britain in 2016.

The night ended with 433 signatures in the book. Smith said "the Nigel who shall not be named," Conservative Party politician Nigel Farage, might have contributed to the name's drop in popularity. He said he hopes his event will help lead to more new Nigels. "I think we've brought it back," he told The Independent. "We will resurge -- there'll be a lot more Nigels next year than this year, I'd definitely put money on that." The gathering raised money for the British Heart Foundation.
