The most common birthday for England and Wales was in February last year for the first time in decades.
February 23 saw 1,880 births, in a rare break in September's domination of new arrivals.
Official figures suggest that no date in the shortest month has taken the top spot in records running back to 1995.
The reasons are unclear, although nine months earlier the country was basking in the glow of the coronation of King Charles.
The second, third and fifth most popular birthdays in 2024 fell in September.
