The Kardashian revolution of substituting a K for a C is still holding strong — the name Kouture was given to a dozen baby girls in 2022, while Couture didn't make the US data this year. Joining a growing list of fashionable word names, Kouture would fit in with classmates Armani or Dior.

Kouture

Synonymous with style, Vogue is the name of a global fashion magazine and a word referring to something popular and on trend. Derived from Old French, it originally meant "wave" or "course of success", this sharp, one syllable choice is associated with the current craze, the clothing style of the moment, and a type of dance.
 
Yet to appear in the US stats, it has been notably borne by Irish model, Vogue Williams, whose grandmother suggested her name after an encounter with someone named Vogue. As such, it is used occasionally in the UK, with as many as 25 born back in 2020, while a more recent year saw it given to 11 girls.

Vogue

A fashionable name that would fit in with cousins Chanel or Dior, Couture refers to the business of designing, making and selling fashionable custom-made clothing. Strongly associated with the chic city of Paris, Couture feels opulent, luxurious, and rich. 
 
For some, that may be part of the appeal — a fashionable and individual option — while for others, such a blatant choice may feel tacky rather than stylish. 
 
The name has appeared sporadically in the US stats since 2008.
