America’s Favorite Baby Names

Love all of these except for Aidan

James is certainly my favorite boy’s name! I don’t mind any of these names, except for Aiden. There are WAY TOO MANY Aiden sound-a-likes! It seems like every other boy I meet here locally is named Jackson or a name that rhymes with Aiden.

This is sort of off topic, but there was a little boy in my town recently named Waylon George. I thought it was refreshing.

I love Aidan, but not the Aiden spelling. I loved the name Aidan 13 years ago for my son, but my husband thought it was “too different,” believe it or not!

Charlotte is my favorite girls name on this list.

Love the list, my younger brother is a Jackson in his mid-twenties. I can’t believe what a trendsetter my mother was with the name.

I believe Heather Locklear named her (and musician Richie Sambora’s) daughter Ava before Witherspoon. Those celebs, always so stylish!

P.S. I know some people enjoy it, but I don’t appreciate the back-to-back gallery view blog posts. It’s just a pain to load so many pages and I’m often more interested in the information than the pictures. I’ll keep reading them, of course! Just wanted to give some feedback

Love James and Amelia. Along with Lila, they sound the “freshest” to me. I’ve never seen the appeal of Aiden/Aidan, and Charlotte is pretty but in a meh kind of way. I prefer Just Jack to Jackson, but Jack is without a doubt the most popular boys name where I live. Ava is probably the most popular girls name, right behind Isabella.

I love James its my dad and brothers middle name and Jamesie is my nanna’s name

I’m so happy that our favorite names are Charlotte and James instead of Kaylee and Jaden )

I can’t believe James is the #1 boys name! Our first child was born on November 13th and we named him James Anthony after his two grandfathers. I have always loved how classic and strong the name is, so I *really* hope it doesn’t become trendy!!

Where did these come from? Is the SSA list out?
