Top 1,000 Baby Girl Names Trending in the U.S.

The Social Security Administration releases a list of the most popular baby names each year. From trendy names that everyone recognizes to unique options that stand out, this list of 2024 baby girl names based on 2023 data should provide some inspiration.

In 2023, names with endings that begin with "a" dominated baby girl names in the US. Eight of the top ten baby girl names included this famous letter in their names - Olivia, Emma, Amelia, Sophia, Mia, Isabella, and Ava Luna, with Charlotte coming third and Evelyn ranking ninth, respectively.

Tip: For an offbeat yet modern name that won't become overused quickly, consider names ending in "A." Perhaps Zelda, Zia, Cressida, Marcella or Althea might make great choices?

According to the Social Security Administration, even names at the lower end of the list, such as Angelique, Ayah and Aylani, still made it into the top 1,000, showing their rising popularity.
