US baby names · the 2010s

Most popular baby names of the 2010s

These are the most given US names of the 2010s, adding up Social Security counts for each year from 2010 to 2019. Across those years SSA recorded 17,501,836 girls and 18,803,137 boys under names given to five or more babies.

Emma led the girls with 195,070 babies, followed by Olivia, Sophia and Isabella. For boys, Noah came first with 183,378, ahead of Liam, Jacob and William.

Against the top 100 of the 2000s, 39 girls’ names and 24 boys’ names in the 2010s are newcomers (girls: Charlotte, Harper, Aubrey; boys: Oliver, Henry, Levi). Of these names, 63 of the 100 girls’ names and 66 of the 100 boys’ names are still in the top 100 in 2025.

A decade total favours names that were steady for ten years over a single-year spike, so a list here can differ from any one year’s top 100. The sparklines show each name before and after the 2010s.
