I hope everyone is breathing a sigh of relief after frantically checking the new rankings of their favorite names!
But if your top name has suddenly become too trendy (sorry to all those Elodie, Elowyn, and Elio lovers out there!) you might want to look further afield for baby name inspiration.
This week, we updated our collection of the 100+ Best Girl Names Below the Top 1000. Instead of Elodie or Elowyn, try Eliora or Ellery, Noelia or Delphine!
The boys’ version will be live on Monday, but (spoiler alert!) the best Elio alternative is Ezio, of course.
For something truly unusual, or even one-of-a-kind, our roster of the Best Unique Baby Names — each given to 25 or fewer babies — is now updated with 2024 data. It’s filled with hidden gems: Darby, Poe, Nixie, York, and more!
