Girls’ Names 2010: Most Popular So Far

I think I single-handedly vaulted at least 10 of these newcomers onto the list.

hahah Rebecca I feel the same way!! hahah

I know these are nameberry favorites and you may feel you’re “guilty” of making them more popular by checking them out often, but our software tracks number of unique users (by computer IP address) as well as number of clicks so we can tell whether a name is being searched hundreds of times by one user. Not true of any of these.

I am happy to see some of the beautiful names that are getting recognized. I love strong sounding feminine names. All of those lee and lyn names bore me. Something like Adelaide or Eliza sounds very girly but not weak. I like that!

Berries have great taste in names

Please tell me Imogen is not going to become overly popular, please, please….

I feel like I’m stuck in a Jane Austen novel. Lots of Anglophile names here.

It would be interesting to list these with the actual number of babies named last year.

My favourite name for baby #3 (if we have a girl) is on the ‘up’ here. I showed the positive Nameberry description of the name to my hubby, but he still doesn’t like it!

awesome post!
” Previously, we’d said not to pay too much attention to shifts up or down, but after two bumps up in a row, we start to wonder whether we smell a trend.

•Violet
•Imogen
•Adelaide
•Harper
•Clementine
•Beatrice
•Flora
•Margaret
•Coco
•Pearl
•Julia”

this reads practically like my girls’ name list!!!

Berries sure do have great taste in girls names!

I really hope my Beatrice doesn’t become too popular!!!! I’m saving that one for my baby girl!

People shouldn’t be upset their favorite names are on these lists. Many of them are still not in the top 1000. I’m psyched my little girl’s name is number 6. That means a lot of tasteful people like her name, but I’m not at all worried she’ll have 5 other Elizas in her class!

i’m still naming my daugther {due in a week!} harper, even though it’s climbing the list.

My 4 month old is Eliza after her great-grandmother. This list worries me!

Well, all these names are very pretty – I just hope they don’t get tooo popular!!! I’m saving several of thee names that are above!!!!

I was sad to see all of our favorite girl names on the list!!! I was hoping that they didn’t track unique users, because I am also one who is guilty of searching a single name tons of times. Bummer!! I will be anxiously awaiting the social security list next year!!

No, as we’ve said, Kate, you can’t be responsible for bumping a name up onto this list by searching it all the time. We look at names searched by the most individual users.

I am naming my baby Amberlynn Grace.

My 1 year old daughter’s name is Beatrice and I’m not worried it will be too popular, just lots if people with good taste

I hope Pearl and Beatrice stay down!

I personally like the names

~Rosemarie
~Jocelyn
~Brooklyn

Well my son in laws observation that Imogen was going UP,UP UP was very correct. I would have always thought that Imogen would stay in the middle ground area even if people like nameberries started to use it.

Great name, love it!!
