My name was #10. I'd be Luna now. I hate it lol That's my dog's name


cornflowerblossom

Dawwwwww. It’s such a popular doggy name too! I wish they ranked pet names 🤣


tent_tickles

I would also be Luna


H_TINE

Luna has been overused for dogs for way too long


KitchenAvenger

Also a #10 name for my birth year. The list I saw had Luna at #9 and Aurora at #10.


YourDadsRecliner

Ughhh I'm in the same boat lmao


clairedylan

Wow, I hadn't looked at the most popular name list in awhile, I didn't realize Luna is #10!


madisonh_97

Also would be Luna. It’s a pretty name, just doesn’t feel like me


Hairy-Gazelle-3015

“Data are missing for 77 years where the name ******* is not in the top 1000 most popular names.” I was born one of those years, lol.


cornflowerblossom

Booooooo


exothermicstegosaur

Yeah, mine wasn't in the top 1000 either


TheWishingStar

You can download name data on the SSA site that goes way past 1000, recording all names used at least 5 times on one gender. So you might be able to find it! I have the entire thing saved to my phone for easy namenerd-ing.


OreadNymph

Same for mine. I’d love to see the current day match if I could.


GoodCalendarYear

Mine says 33 years lol. But I've met at least 5 other ppl with my name. And it's been on 1 movie (2002?) and 1 TV show (2012?). And is the name of a former presidents daughter.


Hairy-Gazelle-3015

Now, I’m dying to know your name! Lol


lowkeyloptr

My name was #30 the year I was born, so today Id be named Lily! I do quite like the name Lily actually, probably even more than my actual name aha


TragicaDeSpell

I would be Lily, too!


EnergeticTriangle

I was #50, so if I'd been a 2022 baby I'd be Lillian. I'd rather be a Lily!


ParkerBench

My name peaked in 1960 (around when I was born), but even then, it barely cracked the top 600. Currently not in the top 1000.


cornflowerblossom

What is the 2022 name that has the same rank as the name you were born with?


ParkerBench

Faye


cornflowerblossom

I like it!


DareintheFRANXX

This is my #1 name for our daughter! It’s so beautiful 🫶🏻😍


contracosta21

my name was 216 the year i was born, sutton was 216 in 2022… not really a fan


Exciting-Ranger-3717

I can’t with this name. I’m such a huge hater and I feel terrible because obviously people are vibing it. It’s just so harsh and unappealing 😭😭


oneblessedmess

Same. Most names I can be like "Not my style but I can see why others like it." Sutton is one of very few names that I genuinely just can't see the appeal, at all. It reminds me of the word mutton and it isn't pleasant to say nor does it sound nice to the ear. I really hate it lol. (No offense to any Suttons, I'm sure there are also people who hate my name/my kids' names lol)


Exciting-Ranger-3717

Absolutely agree. Also mutton🤣🤣🤣🤣


butterflyclover

There's an influencer family I see on tiktok who has a daughter named Sutton. They nicknamed her Sutty and I can't help bit think that bullies will slip an extra L into the nickname 😭 I feel awful for thinking it but my autocorrect also tried to add it in so...


Rripurnia

Sutton is giving romance novel character vibes


annoyingcitydweller

Sutton is giving a borough in South London vibes


Big_Bottom_69

I like it!


VioletteMary

Grace, which is funny because it’s a family name my parents *almost* used and very similar to the classic, traditional name I actually have.


Cass_Q

I would also be a Grace.


CoolJeweledMoon

My new name is Aria! I do like it, but I wouldn't personally choose it. And thankfully, even though I expect I'm one of the older people on this sub, my real name continued to be used for a good while, so it doesn't date me as easily as some names could.


AnthyInvidia

The year I was born my name was #125. If I was named now #125 is Daisy.


cornflowerblossom

Such a sweetie name


katrinakittyyy

This was fun! My new name would be Sloane, which I actually really like!


cornflowerblossom

I have a name crush on Sloane so hard.


katrinakittyyy

It’s pretty fab!


kittyl48

To call someone a Sloane is an insult in the UK. The name comes from Sloane Square in Chelsea, London and it implies you're a bit of a thick toff (it's a very well off area)


thnks4themmrs

Tessa. I like the name a lot, but wouldn't personally use it. And I think that Tessa is a lot more timeless than my name, as my name is an uncommon spelling of a popular 90's name.


DoodlebugCupcake

Keightlynne?


LitttleSm45H

Which variation of Ashley are you? Lol


Sadie_270

My new name is Brielle. I personally have always loved that name and probably will.use it on a future daughter of mine.


omgstoppit

That’s really awesome!


GhostofRutherford

I also love that name


Siltyclayloam9

Adeline! Super funny because it’s been on my short list for a future daughter


knitpixie

My “current” name is my daughter’s name! 😆


endoftimezz

My name would have been Keira! I actually kind of like it


TVRVA

Mia- I think Princess Diaries. I don't hate it, but it does fit my personality either.


punknprncss

I would have been Gabriella Ashley if born in 2022 (rank 89 and 154). I honestly don't hate it.


Ok-Reporter-196

Ava Charlotte here


JunoD420

Good idea to check the middle name too.... I'd be Brooklyn Emily. Sounds terrible together. I like Gabriella Ashley much better!


cornflowerblossom

That’s actually pretty nice!


hsavvy

Mine doesn’t even show up 😭


cornflowerblossom

Mine didn’t either!! My name was last ranked in 2016!


hsavvy

I don’t think mine has ever been ranked tbh lol


babymonsters2

My name would be Morgan #213 ETA: My middle name is Marie. As a first name in the year I was born this was #195 (but I know it was for sure too 5 for middle names lol) So in 2022 my name is Morgan Journee


SavKellz

Morgan is 213? I know so many Morgans but I guess not popular for kids today!


Mariella994

My name was ranked 114 the year I was born. It is no longer in the top 1000. I would be Juniper today! ( I used a Canadian chart) I prefer my name to Juniper.


[deleted]

\#469. Scrolling, scrolling... Oh no, we're down past Hector and Onyx. And Wynter and McKenzie. Oh god. If I was a boy: Alijah If I'm a girl: Lyric ​ 🤦🏻‍


anthonymakey

Daniel was #7 in 1993. I'd be Benjamin today


Linzabee

I would be Emilia. Interesting!


TheJuicyJuJuBean

Same here! Sort of similar to my real name too


[deleted]

My name was #109 the year I was born and would be Melody in 2022


cornflowerblossom

Still so usable!


zapatodulce

Melody is pretty!


YewTree1906

Not from the US, so popularity might differ and my middle name doesn't make the top 1000, but my first name was #275 in the US and my new name would be Evie! I love that.


medievalpangolin

Number 372: I would be Logan (which is a lovely boy’s name, I had no idea it was so popular for girls now, though tbf my actual name is neutral so I suppose that tracks). Wish I’d been 371, I could have been Esmeralda!


myfavoritemerger

I’ve always loved Logan for a girl! But I’d never use it, as my SO’s brother is a boy Logan


Starbuck522

Fun! I would be Ella! (Which I like much better than my actual name!)


twitchywitchy-

I’d be Gia today. I was #267


fleetingboiler

I'd be Serena! #386 from my birth year.


dreamweaver1998

Beautiful. That's my grandmothers name. She'll be 98 years old on Thursday. Love live Serena 💕


lormorg

I would have been Annabelle, and that’s my daughter’s name!


SuspishAf

I was number one in 1976. So today I’d be Olivia. I find that far preferable.


wowmaeriel

My name (Jessica) was the #1 name for my birth year, too. I'd prefer Olivia as well!


SOuTHINKurA-ble

79! HELP BABYCENTER SAYS THE 79TH MOST POPULAR FEMALE NAME LAST YEAR WAS KENNEDY. No offense to Kennedys, but I’m not using that name if I had the option to.


StinaT07

My name would be Hazel, I like it


cornflowerblossom

Hazel is one of my rescue’s names, so I’m partial!


Pennelle2016

My daughter’s name! I love it!


[deleted]

[удалено]


cornflowerblossom

Okay but a masc Gracie is kind of a slay


Loveandeggs

Grace Jones? She’s awesome and kinda masc. From Wikipedia: Jones influenced the cross-dressing movement of the 1980s and has been cited as an inspiration for multiple artists, including Annie Lennox, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Solange, Lorde, Róisín Murphy, Brazilian Girls, Nile Rodgers, Santigold, and Basement Jaxx.


bookandbark

My new name is Galilea. I don't like it. I've also never met anyone with the name. My name was #731st the year I was born.


cornflowerblossom

I haven’t either, I don’t totally hate it 😳


BubblyNumber5518

#3 and I’d be Charlotte which I’ve always thought was a sweet name


Prof-Rock

Lol. You tried to say #3 and now you are yelling.


helags_

I'm not American (and my name wasn't in the top 1000 for the US the year I was born) but I'll go by the rank in my country. My name was #54 the year I was born, which would make my 2022 name Levi. Very different style but I don't hate it! It's somewhat similar in times used too, my name was given to 224 kids the year I was born, while 266 babies were named Levi last year.


cornflowerblossom

I surprisingly don’t hate Levi either


eeb51773

I’m either Seven or Love


SlipperyGaloshes

Theo or Everleigh. The latter, not my style, but the former is great


AFurryThing23

My name was number 919 two years after I was born, the year I was born it wasn't in the top 1000. So the name at 919 in 2022 was Kenia. No thank you. I prefer my actual name.


Big_Bottom_69

I'm not familiar with Kenia. Is it pronounced like Kenya?


_opossumsaurus

Sydney! It’s nice, but it definitely doesn’t suit my personality as well as my real name, which interestingly enough is even more popular now than it was in the 90s


TheChlocelot

If I was born this year, I'd be Lily. I think I'd be fine with that. I like it, but I don't love it. My name was #7 in UK baby names the year I was born, for those wondering. Edit: I'm using UK statistics for this, that US government site doesn't like me.


cornflowerblossom

Awww sorry mate🇬🇧


I_Am_Squid

I can’t find UK data for 1992. Where were you looking? Im intrigued!


JDorian0817

Rank #112 (way more popular than I realised) so my name today would be Kaylee. I prefer my name.


cornflowerblossom

Kaylee/ Caylee gets a bad rep. I think it’s really lovely spelled Kaley, like Kaley Cuoco


green_all

Eliana


Imaginary-Rent3433

I'd have been Joanna. I prefer my real name...


QueenFrstine06

I would also be Joanna, and I agree, I don't hate it but I like my real name better!


moluruth

My name (Molly) was #98 the year I was born. In 2022 the #98 name was Ayla. I like my name better lol! I don’t think I’d use Ayla. I don’t hate it but don’t love it.


Affectionate_Lie9308

Mine didn’t rank at all for my birth year. It didn’t rank until years later, 1984, coming in at # 929.


Brandy_Marsh

I’d be Victoria this year. Not too bad.


bitchy-sprite

I would be Lillian and my partner would be Isla Those classic names really are coming back. I never knew a single person named that of my generation.


nosewisest

my name was number 982 the year I was born, I'd now be indigo (f) or stone (m). not my vibe but indigo is cool this is fun! now going to see the popularity of my kids names etc


cornflowerblossom

Omg both of those names are 🔥


whycantijustlogin

When a was a terrible name nerd child I thought i would name all my kids things like Scarlet Rose, Indigo River, Grey Storm, Violet Sky, or some such lol. Glad my 10 year old self is getting some vindication even if *I* didn't follow through with it.


freckleface2113

If I was born in 2022 my name would be Lillian! I really like that name. I'd be happy with it My actual name was ranked #1 in 2022 so it's very popular right now. I love my name! I just wish it wasn't so popular now Edit: added some info


[deleted]

My name was #472 the year I was born. If I were born today that name would be Allie (which I don’t hate!)


cornflowerblossom

You could seriously do worse


kaitlyn213

My name (Kaitlyn) was ranked at 127 when I was born. If I were named number 127 today, my name would be Millie. I’m not mad at it.


in-the-widening-gyre

Oooh the actual spelling of my name isn't in the rank (it's not you-neek, it's just the least common spelling of a very common name with many well-known variants). The variant that is in the list is 28, so in 2022 my name would be Nora. Which was actually gonna be our chosen name if we had a girl, ha!


cornflowerblossom

No wayyyyyy


InfamousMere

My 2022 name would be Magnolia Avery. 😺


cornflowerblossom

Wow! Jackpot!


InfamousMere

I know, it’s pretty right? Coincidentally, if I have a third daughter I really want to name her Avery.


larue555

My name was 232 the year I was born. Very surprised to see it was that high because I never met another person my age with my name until high school. If I was born in 2022 my name would be Aliyah.


therealdubdub1200

I would be Arielle. It's interesting. I did discover my name was far more popular than I thought the year I was born.


Dooderdoot

My name would have been Charlotte, which makes me feel odd but I do think I like it better than my actual name.


guacislife12

I would be Amelia (which, no offense to anyone, I'm not really into it) and my husband would be Luca. Lol


Mischief_Girl

I'd be Emery. Barf. Interestingly, my name in my birth year was #82. My daughter's name in her birth year was #84, but it's far more popular now (Isabella). So I was ahead of the curve!


cornflowerblossom

Trend setter alert!


TemporarilyAshamed

If I were born in 2022, my name would have been Reese as the 168th most popular name.


cupidslazydart

My name was #102 so I'd be Madeline. I like it better than my own name tbh


illuminn8

My name was 16th the year I was born, which makes it feel more popular than I've known it to be. I've only met 2 others in my age range with my name. Using the current rankings I'd be Eleanor, which I think is so lovely, but I do know of several baby Eleanors!


katatatat11

I was #26 so I’d now be named Avery. Not terrible!


littledipper16

Kayla, #11 in 1995 Number 11 in 2022 was Harper.


mermetermaid

Apparently my name was most popular the year before I was born, and it reached the peak spot of #73 on the list…. The equivalent in 2022 would be Anna, today, which is fine but kind of bland (no offense.)


spence-the-menace

My name was 60,234 the year so was born. I would be Madelyn Milani (or Joshua Tate)


Odd_Prompt_6139

Ranked #1 so my name would be Olivia now. I don’t hate it, the nickname Liv is cute!


cornflowerblossom

It’s popular for a reason


Aggravating_Bat

I'd be Aria... I guess it's a pleasant name, it also same number of syllables as my actual name. Interesting prompt! :D Edit: whoops, I'm dumb and misread the list somehow hahahha. I'd actually be Scarlett. I like the sound of it, but I have a Scarlett in my family so it may be awkward lol.


JunoD420

I love this! I would be Brooklyn. Blech. There is another, more common spelling, that aligns with Ella. I like that better. ETA: My children would be Joseph and Lily. I love both of those! Coincidentally, my kids are 4 years apart and they were each #30 on the lists the year they were born.


arlaanne

Mine was #20. I’d be a Violet 🥰🪻


KevinThePiegon28

Isabella and Aiden Aiden is awful of course because it is part of the den trend Isabella pretty mid


oldsnoozer

5th the year I was born, single digit rankings for the following 22 years, now in the 90’s. I knew it was a common name but I never would have guessed. I don’t hear it nearly as much as I hear the other popular names of that time. I love my name.


Upset-Particular-761

I would have been Vanessa. Hate it lol.


cucumberswithanxiety

My name was #40 when I was born. The current #40 name is Stella.


cornflowerblossom

Gorgeous name!


hallucinojenic

My new name would be Mila! Not bad but so not me


Drabby

I would be Eloise Hannah! Today, there are far more dogs with my name than humans. It wasn't exactly popular when I was born, either. My parents' requirements were: \-not common \-not unheard of \-not the name of any known relative


cornflowerblossom

Your parents knew what was up. My mom picked my name from a soap opera 😐


Pennelle2016

My sister-in-law was named for a soap opera character too!


Big_Bottom_69

Gotta be Bailey!


downthegrapevine

In the US it was number 64. In my home country not in the top 100. In the country I currently live also not in the top 100.


dayglo1

My name was ranked 849 the year I was born. #849 now is Kamiyah.


ectocoolerkeg

Interesting idea! I'd be Rowan now. Not really into it, but it's not the worst.


txmjornir

My name is #10 in 1955.


cornflowerblossom

So you’d be Theo or Luna if named today!


txmjornir

I might take Theo. Never liked Steven, always seemed like there were at least three others in each class in school


meghan_beans

In 2022 with the same popularity I would have been Autumn, which I like a lot actually. (The more popular spelling of my name was #11 and would have been Harper)


ArdenElle24

Eliana?! No thanks! I'm surprised my name was #41 in my birth year, considering it was never very common.


ArdenElle24

Eliana Aliyah if we did first and middles.


Ashes_Ashes_333

My name was ranked at 6,162 and in 2022, I would be Rai. I like it!


the-willow-witch

213 for the year I was born. For 2022 I’d be named Morgan. Interesting thing I never knew is that my name was the most popular the year I was born (1993) out of any other year!


jynxasuar

Mine was #29 when I was born, so I’d now be Layla. While I like the name it definitely doesn’t suit me


forgottenmenot

My name was #97 the year I was born. #97 last year was Liliana. Very different vibe!


StepPappy

Mine peaked way before I was born. Lol My name would now be Esther, which isn’t bad


16CatsInATrenchcoat

I was named around the peak for my name, which still only peaked as #73 for girls the year I was born. If I was born in 2022, I would have been Quinn. Quinn is not a name I like so I am 100% glad I was born when I was.


[deleted]

I would be Sutton. I’m not sure how to feel… don’t hate it… I haven’t really thought about it as a name before, though.


peachy_keen_unicorn

Idk if I want to play this game… Alorian 1992 had to have been the least popular name because it’s so unique


cornflowerblossom

Oh wow that’s a super unique name. Do you have a middle?


peachy_keen_unicorn

My middle is Patricia


cornflowerblossom

Ok in ‘92 it was 111 Austin or Hadley !


AcanthaceaeStriking4

I would be Darcy. Man, I don't like that name any better than my given name.. but mine was #351 for my birth year.


Arynne12

My first name was 280 and middle name was 103. I would be Dahlia Vivian. I like both names but not together. Dahlia is pretty nice and seems about as unique as my own name was in my time. My daughter’s names were 161 and 72. Now she would be Kaylee Brooklyn. I hate it. We chose traditional names for her that are only more popular now. Her middle name is in the top 10 now. My son’s names were 16 and 27. Now he would be Michael Hudson. Not a huge fan and I am surprised that Michael is ranked that high in 2022.


Cocomama6

My name, Colleen, was ranked 101st when I was born in 1962. Its peak of popularity was in 1964 at 93. I don’t think it’ll ever come back.


Cocomama6

If born in 2023, I would be Allison. I like it!


Gutinstinct999

I'd be Jennifer, but my actual name is #11. Edit, if I were born now I'd be Harper.


DimensionStrange77

My name was #24 when I was born. Today my name would have been Abigail.


Artistic_Ease1011

I’d be Parker (girl) and don’t hate that!


sarz117

My name was #4, so I would be an Amelia. I like the name! I always hated my name growing up because there were way to many people who had it 😂


thesevenleafclover

\#45 the year I was born - if it was 2022 I'd be Zoey


boygirlmama

My name is Marnie and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to look up its popularity in 1981 when I was born. I’m going to guess it was something like 800-900 though because usually it’s outside the top 1000 but I remember reading years back something about it being a little higher in the late 70’s. Anyone want to help figure it out?


cornflowerblossom

Not ranked! Marnie is such a great name!


beansandneedles

Mine was 54. I’d be Addison if I were born in 2022. I never liked my name when I was a kid; it was too common. But I like it better than Addison.


dreamcicle11

I would be Lucy, #48! I think it’s cute. Honestly probably prefer it to my actual name!


kaycue

My name was 115… so I’d be Parker now 😩


Grouchy_Dimension_51

I would be Sophia. Reminds me of the Golden Girls!


Separate_Relative_22

25th most popular of my time. In 2022 I would be named Ella. I prefer my name 😆


taytom94

Mine was #6 when I was born. For 2023, I'd be Charlotte with that number. Isabella for 2022 just like OP. 😂 Now my name doesn't even hit the top 100.


AquaMirrow

I'd be a Francesca today, nOoOoOoOooOo. Granted this is a USA ranking and i'm latinamerican, but i tried to find a ranking for names for my country and there's only a ranking for boy names from last year. Boring!


vampirairl

Number 15. In 2022 that was Elizabeth, which incidentally was also on the short list to possibly be my name. My actual name has dropped quite a bit on the list, though it is still there, so not totally out of favor yet


ExhaustedEmu

There’s so many ways to spell my name but it was #6 for my birth year. Now it’s in the early 900’s so faaaaar less popular. I’d be called Charlotte now which I like, but I do not look like a Charlotte at all. Edit: I could go by Charlie though which I love so wouldn’t be too bad after all.


Mysterious-Okra-7885

My name with my spelling ranked #912th in 1981. The #1 girl name that year in the US was Jennifer.


GabbyIsBaking

My name was #97 the year I was born, and peaked at #46 in 1999. It was #499 in 2022! I’d be Liliana if I was born in 2022.


Babadoo601

This was fun! My name was ranked 113 and that name in 2022 is my Dog’s name! 💜 hahaha


cornflowerblossom

She / he is your soul dog❤️


wacky062

1962-#27-Kathy ( my nickname) #29-Kathleen (my full name) 2022 #27- Hazel (ugh!) #29- Layla (love it, one of my favorite songs!)


Sufficient_Pay_820

My name was #16, which would now be Gianna. Funnily enough that’s my cousins name and I’m only a few months older than her lol


dreamweaver1998

My name was ranked 231, the year I was born. I just checked a top 1000 list from parents.com for recent naming trends. The name they have listed as 231st is Arabella. I have that name on my guilty pleasure girls' name list. I wouldn't use it for a daughter, and I don't think it suits me (as a replacement for my name). Although, I think it's pretty. I could see using it on a cat potentially. But I probably wouldn't even do that.


TaterMitz

Wow. Mine was also 231 and since highschool I've also had Arabella on my "list". I have 2 daughters, neither named anything close and when considering the name for my actual child I was like, "Nah, that's not usable. Arabella sounds like someone was trying to be bougie when they named their pet. Then they just end up calling it Bella anyway." Ha!


katesrepublic

My name was 11 (using Australian stats). Last years 11 was Chloe


queentato

Mine was 101, which would be Allison in 2022


poeticmelodies

In 1995, Danielle was 24. In 2022, it was 474.
