Check out www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget for lists of most popular girls and boys names in UK.
In my experience most popular for middle class are,

Boys
Michael (millions!)
Nicholas
Henry
Harry (often as nn for Henry)
Matthew
Joshua
Christopher

Girls
Elizabeth
Isabelle(and all other spellings, getting very popular)
Katherine
Sarah
Laura
Megan
Victoria
Jennifer

Names deemed as 'classics' are very popular with the middle class.

etc etc Stats list is better. Hope that helped. You could also try 'The Times' website, they must have one.
