Choosing a baby name is one of the first decisions parents have to make — and also one of the most important. There are plenty of things that go into making the decision: Do you want to honor a relative? Do you want to choose a name that's obviously a boy name or a girl name, or do you want to pick a gender-neutral baby name?
One huge factor, of course, is the popularity of a baby name. Some parents want to go with the trends, and choose something traditional and classic that most people can pronounce and spell right of the bat. Other parents are looking for more unusual and unique baby names, to stand out from the crowd. But which names are which? Here, we look at the current most popular baby names, along with the trends that will affect baby names in 2021.
These baby names are experiencing the sharpest rise.
Every year, the Social Security Administration releases its list of the most popular baby names in the United States. You can see the top 50 for girls and boys below, but, at the moment, the reigning champs for girls are Olivia, Emma, Ava, Sophia and Isabella for girls, and Liam, Noah, Oliver, William and Elijah for boys.
But that was for last year, based on data for 2019. If you want to know what's going to be most popular next year, you have to look at the list of the fastest climbers. Luckily, the SSA keeps track of the names with the biggest jumps in popularity, too. For girls, the hottest risers are Amoura, Theodora, Navy, Emani and Yaritza; for boys, they're Sekani (which went up 6,159 places in rank!), Ermias, Amias, Kyro and Ambrose. This means that girls' names ending with an -a sound continue to be popular, like the current faves of Olivia and Emma, while boys names ending with -ias, like perennial fave Silas, are getting even hotter. Names that end in -iel, too, are doing well for boys: The next two chart-climbers for boys are Aziel and Eliel.
These baby names are losing favor.
So if the Amouras and Sekanis are on their way up, who's on their way out? The SSA also keeps track of the names that have seen the biggest drops in rank.
For boys, it's names that end with -en sounds. Jaxtyn, Brysen, Coen, Imran, Payton and Jaxen are all on the list of names that are losing popularity, along with Chad, Bowie and Deshawn.
For girls, while ending with an -a is popular, beginning with one is one the wane: Aislinn, Aiyana, Avalyn, Avah and Ansley are saw some of the biggest drops, in addition to Emmarie, Saniyah, Tatiana, Zhavia and Jayden. Names are cyclical, and of course these can always come back, but for now they're losing steam.
Nameberry and BabyCenter find more up-and-coming names.
The baby-naming website Nameberry tracks interest in names among its users, which may give a more up-to-the minute look compared with the SSA, which takes a year to release its data. So what has it noticed as a huge trend among baby names? Place names are getting big again. "The hottest among them fall into three distinct categories," the site reports. "Egyptian place names, such as Cairo and Egypt; Italian city names, including Rome and Milan and biblical place names, such as Salem and Zion." Cities in the United States are becoming popular, too, like Aspen, Boston, Dallas, Denver and Memphis. What's most interesting about these trends is that these are largely gender-neutral names.
In addition, BabyCenter does a similar tracking of user interest among its users. When it released its Top Names of 2020, there were a few names in their top 25 that didn't make the SSA's top 50, so look for these names to become more popular next year. They are: Aaliyah, Eliana, Adalyn and Gianna for girls, and Caden, Muhammad and Luca for boys.
According to the Social Security Administration, these are the 50 most popular names for girls in the United States.
