To some, choosing the name your child will carry for the rest of his or her life is easy. For others, it’s the hardest part!
Some parents opt for the most popular names while others search and search for the most unique and unused. Whatever your approach, it’s safe to say sites like Names.org come in handy. Now, this resource is unlike your typical Google searches for the top baby names of 2020. The website offers statistical analysis using the most recent data from the Social Security Administration along with several previous years to detect any trends. It also compares user interest from the millions of visitors the site receives each month. User interest is compared over time as well as relative to other names to make the predictions.
It sounds complex because, well, it is. But, choosing the name of your child is a big deal, right? So, what are the top ten names for baby boys and baby girls so far in 2020?
BOYS:
Just Outside the Top 10
Sebastian is just outside the top 10 and is rising in popularity. Look for Sebastian in the top 10 list in the coming years. Mason, Ethan, Logan, Michael, and Daniel also fall just short of the top 10, but they are declining in popularity.
GIRLS:
Just Outside the Top 10
Luna, Camila, and Aria are just outside the top 10 and are rising in popularity. Look for these names in the top 10 list in the coming years. Evelyn, Abigail, and Ella also fall just short of the top 10, but they are declining in popularity.
The trends focusing on more gender-neutral baby names aren’t reported via the Name.org’s predictions.
