Most Popular Boy Names 2019
The SSA list of popular boy names has been changing more in recent years than ever before. Classic names for boys such as Robert and John that once dominated the popularity list are making way for unique names from the bible or mythology, international choices, or surnames and nicknames turned into popular first names for boys.
Liam is the Number 1 name for boys in the US, followed by the biblical boys’ name Noah and the classic male names William and James. Boy names attracting interest in 2019 include Atticus, Milo, Jasper, Asher, Jack, and Theodore. The names climbing the popularity list the fastest include Amos, Atlas, Caspian, Elio, Otter, Wilder, the surname Wells, the re-spelled place-name Kairo, and the star name Nova, which means new.
Popular categories of boy names in 2019 include mythological and ancient Roman names, nature names, and literary names. Classic boy names such as Henry, Oliver, and James are still favored, but many unusual names for boys from Maverick to Magnus are also in style.
