As parents, choosing a name for our little ones is a special and personal experience. However, it seems that many of us have a similar thought process when it comes to naming our children. This month, BabyCenter released their annual ranking of the most popular baby names, and it's no surprise that some of last year's favorites have remained at the top.
Olivia and Noah have been holding strong as the number one names for girls and boys, respectively, since 2023. In fact, Noah has been the top choice for boys for the second year in a row, while Olivia has claimed the title for girls for four consecutive years. Other popular names for boys include Liam, Oliver, Elijah, and Mateo, with Asher being the only new addition to the top 10.
The top choices for girls also remained largely unchanged, except for one notable jump. Ellie went from 15th to ninth place in just one year. And among the names that made BabyCenter history, Walker, Bennett, and Adriel for boys, and Ember and Oakley for girls all made it to the top 100 list for the first time. These rankings are based on parents from all around the world sharing the names they chose for their little ones with the website.
If you're in need of some inspiration for your own baby's name, you can find plenty of ideas from the top 100 lists for girls and boys. But it's also interesting to note which names seem to have fallen out of favor, such as Kayden, Dominic, and Aaron for boys, and Eva and Jasmine for girls.
One name that saw a significant drop in popularity is Sarah. Despite being a beloved name for over 60 years, it has now fallen to 108th place overall. On the other hand, names starting with the letter E seem to be trending, with Eliana, Eden, and Ember for girls, and Elias, Ezekiel, and Easton for boys.
It's always fascinating to see the trends and changes in baby names each year. Whether you're looking for a classic or unique name, there are plenty of options to consider.
