Most Popular Names in Germany
The most popular names in Germany in 2022 were Emilia and Noah at Number 1.
Along with Emilia, the other girl names in the German Top 5 are Mia, Sofia, Emma, and Hannah. Along with Noah, other top boy names in Germany include Matteo, Elias, Finn, and Leon.
Lu- names are a significant trend for girls and boys in Germany. Luca, Lukas, Luke, Ludwig, Luan, Luisa, Luna, Luise, and Luana all make the Top 100.
A good number of the top names in Germany are actually German names in origin. Among the top German girl names that are unique in the US are Leni, Lotta, and Finja. German boy names that are popular in Germany but rarely heard in the US include Moritz, Hannes, and Till. Names like Ida, Romy, Linus, and Levin, all of which are among the most popular names in Germany but none of which make the US Top 1000, may be worth considering for an American child.
It's worth noting that variant spellings are combined in the German data, and listed by the most popular spelling: so the rankings for names like Sofia and Lukas also represent births for Sophia and Lucas.
