Most popular names of 2021

Why do all the women have names from the late eighteenth-century and the Regency?

Emma, Amelia, Sophia, Charlotte, Isabella ... those are all names of Jane Austen characters, or the names of daughters of George III (the king during J.A'.s lifetime), or both.

I don't know about the girls' names, but - yeesh - all the boys' names are common among gay PRON actors 😆

R1 Bridgerton

You got great taste, OP. That is one hawt baby!

Which country is this?

James Jamie Jimmy Jimbo

I'll call my new red setter Noah then.

Doesn't really matter they are the dumbest dogs on the planet

I like all the girls names except Harper. Last names as first names are très déclassé.

R2 That’s cause that’s how porn actors and studios look up names for them or the models do it. They look up baby names / popular names.

That’s why there were so many Cody’s in porn in the 2000s.

R9 Cody and Caleb and Jake and Gabe.

R7, why'd you get a dumb dog?

I don't like Luna, Harper, Mason, or Asher. But I'm relieved that Cayden/Brayden/Madysyn are not in the top 10. Old-fashioned and traditional names are a billion times better than "creative" names.

White people are so annoying

Some of those names scream hipster parents, but not as bad as I would've thought.

Why would anyone name their baby boy Liam and doom them to a life of mookdom?

Almost all Anglo-Irish.

I heard the most popular boy's name in the world is Mohammed

Basic bitch names.

Harper is not a name. It's a disinfectant.

Liam and Ewen are weak names.

Neeson and McGregor may have sex appeal but their names are anaemic.

I tend to think in nicknames: Sofa, Enema, Olive Oyl, Loony, Asser, Harpy, Amoeba...

i like Ethan and Elijah. Olivia has been in the top 10 for at least 20 years, same for Emma. They used to be kinda nice. Now they are boring.

Ethel, my favourite name and the name of my Godmother, was most popular in 1896, and is currently one of the least popular names.

The girls names are just awful...bring back Bertha while they are at it

This list is bullshit. I know from the many threads I've read on DL that every girl child is named Braylee or Kaylee and every boy child is named Jaydyn or Kayden.

Some of these are dogs' names. Names for a dog!

Now I feel like a former Miss Texas.

All the names smell moldy.

R11 To keep my other dumb dog company.

I will just name my new dogs all the pretty names: Corona, Zika, Ebola, and Nipa, to remind me what a wonderful world I live in.

I like the Dutch list: The Girls list has the old Sofia and Emma but also nice additions like Lotte. The boys list is generally more interesting: Luuk and Daan and SEM is number one.

Girls: 1: Tess 2: Sophie 3: Emma 4: Mila 5: Julia 6: Yara 7: Zoë 8: Nora/Noor 9: Sara 10: Lotte

Boys: 1: Sem 2: Noah 3: Lucas 4: Daan 5: Liam 6: Luuk 7: Finn 8: Levi 9: Mees 10: Bram

Liam bugs me; it’s a diminutive. Is it so difficult to name your kid William?

I expected Meghan to be the top name for girls and Elon for boys

This list looks filtered for white parents only to me.

I teach in a high school with 1400 boys. A few days ago, I noticed that a name that was extremely common was not on my class lists - Robert. I went to the attendance office and we researched how many boys named Robert were in the school. There were 7. I would have thought that there would be jrs. or kids named after a grandfather, but that wasn't the case. WHET to Roberts?

why would anyone want to name their kid one of the most popular names knowing we're already inundated with them?? There will be 5 Noahs in that poor kid's class!!

I hate jumping on a band wagon.... kinda like NOW getting an eyebrow slit or a neck tattoo! They're soooooo yesterday. And sooooooo unoriginal.

R35. Robert is a nice name. I guess now it has the same appeal as Arnold, Albert, and names like Ronald and Donald. Old fashioned but not cool old fashioned. I'm sure it will be popular again in the future.

Nebuchadnezzar . Now there is a cool old-fashioned name.

All Beta names. Not an Alpha in there. Especially no Alpha male names.

A nice strong name needs a come-back.

Has the testosterone level dangerously dropped?

I still prefer Denice and Denephew if a sibling has a boy and a girl.

What's worse than Bella? Putting 'izza' in front of it.

R38 I found a Zorobabel in my family tree.

DL's Andy Ngo stans are secretly mad there isn't a Juán or Mohammed in the list and they can't rage-post about it for the rest of the night, so they can forget the darkness that lies in their chests.

Regarding Mason. In the early days of free internet porn, thirty seconds per clip, one of the first videos I ever saw was titled Mason Jar. It was of a young guy named Mason (he referred to himself as Mason) who was able to insert a mason jar inside his; you know where he put it. A little over twenty years later, I still think of Mason in that video when I hear or see the name. Those are my thoughts, OP -- good list.

Side note: My kid's name is Emma. It's an old family name which was given to her in April 2002. About six weeks later on May 16, 2002, that fucking whore Rachel from Friends had a goddamned baby. (Something the barren-wombed Jennifer Aniston could never do.) Anyway, the baby's name on the show became Emma and literally overnight, every pregnant, white fucking frau in yoga pants and Ugg boots (as they were the style of the day) started naming their inbred babies Emma. The name Emma went from barely cracking the top twenty for decades to skyrocketing to number one or two since. Fucking Jennifer Aniston. I always liked the name and it was a solid choice -- not popular or trendy. Fucking Jennifer Aniston ruined that.

Early on into her Friends run, I didn't like Aniston because I felt she and her character (which are really one in the same -- this bitch has one gear: Jen Aniston) was the epitome of a boring, uncultured, American white chick. She has a "Live Laugh Love" sign in the kitchen and she always thinks she's the life of the party. She proudly, without irony, calls herself "a Rachel."

And now, almost twenty-two years later, I still get violently angry anytime Jennifer Aniston's name comes up in any way. Fuck that boring, latern-jawed bitch.

Yes, R39, the testosterone level has dangerously dropped all across the USA as well as the UK and Australia.

Hephzibah was a popular girl's name in the 19th Century, even with Catholics and Protestants.

Where's Talbot?

Mason Jarr.

So has the Jayden, Brayden, Caden, Hayden, Kaden moment passed?

Do people still use Bible names like Moses, Aaron, Jeremiah

I thought the in name was ABCDE

I'd name my kids ( if I had any) Doctor, Professor Emeritus or Her Most Serene Majesty if female and Sir if male.

R52 = JK Rowling

I had me a baby boy last year, named him Tiger King. It’s classy, see, cuz it got "King" in it.

All porn names.

R53, huh?

Racist. These are all white people names.

I’ve seen this Mason Jarr’s picture, but never watched him in motion. I had no idea his porn name came from his ability to insert glass jars into his anus. He doesn’t look like the type.

These poor kids. Olivia always makes me think of old olives and liver. I see Oliver is on the list for boys. It just makes me think of cousin Oliver from “The Brady Bunch” or Oliver Hardy twiddling his tie.o

R40 You probably meant to type 'Deniece' but bigotry takes precedence over intelligence.

How do you pronounce Levi? Is it lee-vi? Or lev-ee?

Yes everyone, the -ayden trend has been OVAH for at LEAST a decade.

Tell everyone at the senior center so they’re up to date, too!

You are missing, Lucifer. All children are the devil.
