Most Popular Names 2020
The SSA list of popular baby names has been changing more in recent years than ever before. Most of the names that were popular when this generation of parents were born -- Jessica and Joshua, Ashley and Christopher -- have sailed away, to be replaced by new Number 1 baby names like Emma and Liam, along with unique names undiscovered a generation ago, from Luna to Bodhi.
Top girl names in the US include classics Olivia and Charlotte, with unique choices such as Octavia, Lyra, and Oakley among the fastest-rising names for girls. For boys, the top-ranking names include the Biblical Noah and the classic boy names William and James. Boy names climbing the popularity list fastest include Caspian (as in the sea), Otter (as in the animal), and Nova (as in the star).
Nameberry is the leader in analyzing baby name popularity, tracking trends, and discovering new names. Created by internationally-recognized name experts Pamela Redmond Satran and Linda Rosenkrantz, it’s the largest and most complete baby name resource in the world.
