It's always so interesting to see what'a rising in the UK vs the states. Here in the US, I feel like every other little boy is Beau and Leo right now. Both great names!
I named my boy Leonel in 2015 he goes by Leo, no one was naming their sons that here in this area of the US at the time, then all of a sudden there was half a dozen Leos and Theos when he started public school lol.
I have a daughter, Norah Waive born in 2021. Waive was my great grandmother’s name. and just welcomed Callan Douglas last month. Callan is the 5th generation with the middle name Douglas. I would have vetoed so quickly had it been a first name tradition! I love that they both have family names in the middle with their own name in the first spot.
We named our son Calix Gregory because we loved its meaning and wouldn’t have found it if it weren’t for your videos. Thank you!! Glad to see you’re back ❤
So glad to see you back. Sending so much love to you all! My baby girl is called Winter (Winnie for short) and we never heard anyone with this name until we had her. Now it’s seems everyone knows a Winter! I was glued to your videos and podcasts when pregnant. Thank you x
Oh the dream name! I loved Winnie right back from when I had Freddie 13 years ago but Henrik says Vinnie as he doesn't pronounce his W's the same! Gutted! So happy you have it and yes there's a lot more now but still a gem! xxx
@@Luckyforus686 if you love it, use it! Honestly when you love a name, you will be proud to tell people it. I was nervous before she was born but the second she had that name, I wanted to tell everyone!x
I’ve resisted downloading TikTok for so long and now SJ is doing baby name dilemmas on there?! I might have to take the leap and hope I don’t get addicted!
I’m so happy to see you making these videos again. Listening to you and Naomi on your podcast was such a joy during my pregnancy and helped me choose my daughter’s name, Nellie Joan. So lovely to see her name in this list! Sending much love 💕
Miles was on our short list for my son but we went with Felix and people always seem pleased with it! I think it’s a fun but easy to spell/pronounce name!
We had a Margot last year! Lots of positive reactions to her name. I love Clementine, but also can’t get past the Clemmy nn. Some other nickname options: Lemon, Minty, Tiny
So many of these boy names were on my list 😀…. Jude, Oakley, Ruben, Remy, Otis, Rupert - all such lovely names! We ended up naming our little one Casper 😊 x
I have to comment, cause we clearly have similar taste in names. Jude, Ruben, Remy and Otis were on my list too. 3 months ago I named our new dog Rupert, and 4 months ago we named our son Jasper! 😁
I had a daughter on May 26th who was born 9 weeks premature so we had a month in the NICU. We named her Penelopy Ann 🩷 I'm so glad her name didn't pop up on this list (in the nicest way possible🤣). I love Norah and primrose and how well do they go together 🙏 xx
For me, Rupert has a quintessential British connotation. I first heard it in the book "Matilda" (one of her classmates). It's like the name Robert, but super British. I don't think I've ever met a Rupert here in the States.
Hi SJ! I wanted to say thank you for helping my husband and me name our third child. She was born a year ago, and we named her Opal Margo. I heard the name Opal on your channel a couple times, and I couldn’t get it out of my head. It took until she was born to convince my husband 😂 (we didn’t find out the gender before her birth), but we love it, and it fits her so well. It’s definitely a name that no one has thought of, and people are always surprised by it. 😊
I got my second child's name from reading the comments section of one of your videos, Elodie❤️ not popular here in the US which is fine with me, I like uncommon names. For a very long time my number 1 boy name was Koah. We had our sweet Koah full term stillborn on his due date at the end of May. I am now hoping his name becomes very popular so that I can hear it and see it all the time 🤍
I’m so happy to see your back SJ! I have watched your videos since 2016 when I was 10 years old and I’m 17 now. I just adore names and I love hearing which ones are about to become popular. My all time favourite girl name is Phoebe and I don’t care how popular it gets I really want to name my future daughter this! ❤
I had a baby girl in August and her name is very unique to me as i dont see it everyday, she is called Bea (meaning Bringer of hapiness and derived from Beatrix/ Beatrice like her granny. Has this made any of the rare lists yeg out of curiousity?
We had our daughter Delphine in July. We get such positive reactions to the name, which is of course very satisfying for me, being name obsessed for as long as I can remember. I love your videos SJ and and hope you're doing okay.
@@lonesomebeetroot3376 Oh what a beautiful combo! I love Lyra. My son is Rumi if that inspires you for your daughter. Astri is a lovely rare celestial name too. Congrats on your little one on the way!
I've been watching since I was pregnant with my first child in 2021. Have just had baby #2 and have named him Orion (Rory for short). Thank you for 2.5 years of baby name inspo! I'm still an avid subscriber as I love keeping up with the world of baby names 😂
i am very newly pregnant but LOOOVE figuring out baby names so i can talk to the baby by their name while i'm pregnant lol. My kids are Atlas and Daisy, and if we have another girl she'll be Opal, and if it's a boy he'll be Isaac!
I have a 6yo called Opal and everyone who has ever met her loves her name! There are no other Opals's in our town either so it's nice and rare! Wish you all the best with your pregnancy!
Can’t believe Clementine is on this! My 2020 baby is Clementine and I love how it gets mixed reactions and is still seen as unusual. My Clementine doesn’t mind Clemmie, but we also call her Tiny ❤
Love to have you back! You’ve done so well to bring these back. I listened to you so much with my first 2 pregnancies and I’ve just found out I’m expecting again so it must be fate 😊😊😊❤
I had surprise gender twins a few years ago. I chose one boy name (Darien) one girl (Avalon) and one gender neutral (Kit) so I would be covered regardless of what we had. It ended up being boy/girl, so Kit ended up being our girl. Surprised to hear it rising for boys because now I can’t see it as anything but a girl name!!
So so pleased to see you are back dear SJ. Listening to you and Naomi made my pregnancy so much better. I think of Naomi so often. I am glad you’re back. Thanks to you we named our baby girl Odette Marigold and she is a delight. Just turned one 🎉
We picked Theodore in like 2019 and it’s shot to 18 this year . Need a girls name but I like things like Cordelia, Breanna, Cressida which are not trendy
My son's name is Vaughn and I really think I hit the sweet spot on a rare but rising name. I announced his name when I revealed his gender and not a single person had anything negative to say! In fact most people just tell me they think his name is really cool :)
I know babies/little ones with all of these names - Just this past week I’ve seen birth announcements pop across my feed for both a Luca and a Jude. These are all palpably on the rise!
We had Shiloh, Nora, and Cora as our baby girl name options! Ended up using Cora, but I’ve seen Nora and Shiloh on your recent BNM videos! Love all of them.
I had a little girl in February this year and we called her Cora as well. :) Cleo was other name we had in mind. When we had her there was a baby opposite called Nora. 😊
Can’t believe Maeve has become so popular! I put it down to the character in Sex Education. When I named my daughter Maeve Luna back in 2017 it was almost unheard of unless you’re Irish. I love it though. It’s beautiful yet strong. Be careful if you use it, my Maeve is definitely a force to be reckoned with aka Warrior Queen!
I named my son Reuben in 2017 when it wasnt so popular and now i hear it lots! I'm expecting again now and hoping for another not-too-popular, not-too-out-there name for this child. 😁 Thank you for this!
We've named our daughter Azore almost two years ago. We live in The Netherlands, she's the only Azore registered and literally everyone compliments it so mission accomplished hahaha.
My 9 year old daughter is named Allegra which was unheard of at the time. Now I’m hearing it everywhere with younger girls! I obviously picked a rare but rising name 😅
I love Alba, and (although I don’t have kids yet) if I have two girls, it’s going to be one of the middle names of my second daughter 😊 I’m pronouncing it slightly differently though; Alba is the Gaelic name for Scotland (where I’m from), so I’m pronouncing it the same as that - Ah-lah-buh.
Named my son Alfred here in the US and it felt almost too bold for me, a total people pleaser! But I'm so glad I did. He gets tons of compliments and we call him both Alfie and Freddie.
My first little girls name I was set on from I was a kid. I called her Esmée after Esmeralda but now I’m having my second baby and I never imagined it was going to be so hard to find a name that I love
Love this list!! 2 years ago I was quite pregnant, listening to your videos often!! My son, River, will be 2 in January! So fun to listen to this video randomly, my oh my does time fly! SO sorry about the loss of your sister, she was such a gem!! Thaks for making AWESOME videos! 💓
For me Rupert always reminds me of Christmas because most years when I was young I'd get a Rupert Bear annual as a pre Christmas present, my family may not have bought the Daily Express anytime during the year but along with advent calendar chocolate the weeks before Christmas always meant 3 or 4 new stories (and puzzles) with Rupert and his friends
I have a Clementine and we have surprised ourselves at how much we just use Clementine. Cleo is our short version but it hardly ever gets used ❤ beautiful name isn't it x
My 3 month old daughter is called Ophelia.. I just fell in love with the name as soon as I heard it. My eldest daughter is called Delara, which is a Persian name . Her dad is Persian and I thought it was quite similar to Delilah, which I love. My son is called Edris … which is old Welsh ( and Arabic ) name
I'm a preschool teacher in the US and I've noticed the new baby girls being born into my students' families have been given very masculine or tomboy names. There is a Jaxon and a Anderson, both girls. Sloane, Blakely, Ryan, Max, and other tomboy or "warrior" girl names are becoming popular, too. Maybe this is just a little micro-trend for my area, though, because the girl names on your list don't seem to be leaning masculine much at all! Also, Nora and all its different spellings was HUGELY popular in my area a little while ago. We had about ten Nora's in my class during 2017/2018! The girls were all Nora or Lucy, and the boys were all Jackson or Jack!
Baby girl name suggestions for a Turkish, Kurdish, English, Scottish descended child?! All four grandparents have different heritage. Mum is English/Scottish and dad is Turkish/Kurdish.
I hear a lot of l’s, e’s, r’s, and o’s in this list. The biggest association I have with Rupert is Rupert Grint, but that’s not a negative thing in my opinion. I feel like a Clementine could go by Emmy.
We just had our daughter and her name is Marlo Lorraine. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. 💗 Maybe an alternative to Margo if it gets too popular?
I'm a writer, and I have managed to create a world that is a lot bigger than I expected 😅 Now I'm running out of traditional names, so I tried using Scrabble tiles to see if I could come up with some new names. But it's difficult to decide whether I like them or not, since they still just look like letters jumbled together. Has any one done something like this and found a name you actually like??
Best thing for this is to take a normal name and just change one part to another letter or take a part of another name Eg. Lupert, Saral, Gavon, Ashwin, Jaxer, Stanlin, Envo, Michaen/Mikan etc etc. I think this gives the best compromise between a fantasy name and a name readers can actually remember!
@@JoanneMartinLucas Thank you. I was also trying to combine syllables from common Anglo-Saxon names, so I came up with Audriel, which I think is quite pretty.
My son turned 45 in January of this year. His name is Blake Edward Cantrell. My oldest son's name is Kelly Hunter C. He will be 50 in April. I was was ahead of the name game years ago😅
Love this SJ! Such gorgeous names, and one of our twin boys Remy too 😍 I sometimes still wish I’d have gone braver but Remy and Forrest was a compromise (I do love them though!) as I had to be reigned in a bit 🤣 Hope you’re all doing ok xx
I’m obsessed with Beau for a girl. My husband keeps saying absolutely not. But…he also said that about the name Hazel and we now have a 4 year old girl named Hazel 😂 we will see I guess
This is so funny; all the boy names here were on my list for my baby boy in 2020 (except 2 that I love, but are already taken). Due a baby girl in Jan 2023 and you said my top girl name on the internet! Shhhhh, SJ. You’re too good 😂
We are tossing up between Frederick (Freddie), Ralph and Rupert. I just can’t settle on one. Everyone keeps saying I’ll know when I see him, fingers crossed.
It's always so interesting to see what'a rising in the UK vs the states. Here in the US, I feel like every other little boy is Beau and Leo right now. Both great names!
I named my boy Leonel in 2015 he goes by Leo, no one was naming their sons that here in this area of the US at the time, then all of a sudden there was half a dozen Leos and Theos when he started public school lol.
We named our daughter Andie earlier this year and it gets incredibly mixed reactions. I love her name. ❤️ feels rare but wearable.
Oh I LOVE it - one of my crushes!! So glad you went with it xxx
This is so sweet! I've thought about having an Andie since I saw How to lose a guy in 10 days haha
Ah I love the name Andie ❤
i went to highschool with a girl named Andie!
I have a cousin named Andy (short for Andrew), otherwise I would use Andie for a girl.
I know a little Clementine and her nickname is Lemon! Isn’t that adorable?
My two little girls are Elora Jane and Primrose Coralie! ❤️❤️
LOVE Elora Jane and primrose coral
@@leahjuniper2031 thank you!
Omg lemon for the nickname is adorable
Coralie is so unique and pretty❤
My daughter is Primrose; we call her Posy.
My daughter had her little girl earlier this year and called her Mabel….it’s such a lovely name, glad it’s getting more popular
Such a beauty!! ❤❤❤

Sebastina, Trumpetta, Jadrienne, Veruca, Mavreen, Pegeen, Octavian, November (nicknamed Vembie), Callandra, Callahan, Zenovia, Zelanthra, etc.

How do you pronounce your daughter's name?
Okay but Envy kinda sounds like a cute baby name
Hahaha I feel the same about Calamity. Maybe too bold.
It’s in use!!! 3 last year!!
Where did you get the data from? I couldn't find the ONS data for 2022 yet :(
My 9 year old daughter is named Allegra which was unheard of at the time. Now I’m hearing it everywhere with younger girls! I obviously picked a rare but rising name 😅

I wonder if Oakley gained in popularity due t Leah and Caitlin naming their son the same? They’re not celebrities, but very popular on tik tok!
Oh wow! Probably - it always follows popular culture so much x
Who?
Maeva means fruit (blessing for hard work) in Hindi and Punjabi. It’s rising in popularity for Sikh baby girls.

Also, Nora and all its different spellings was HUGELY popular in my area a little while ago. We had about ten Nora's in my class during 2017/2018! The girls were all Nora or Lucy, and the boys were all Jackson or Jack!
Wow love hearing this so much - amazing Nora is so popular!
I liked the idea of a Noa, Reese, or Billie for a girls name- for a masculine leaning girl name- but our last baby ended up being a boy!
I've noticed this, too! I don't like this trend though. All these sweet little girls with these Jock names 😔
@@kathryncoursey8066 I get that, my name is Toni, and I was honestly teased a lot for it, and having a masculine name sucks sometimes.
Baby girl name suggestions for a Turkish, Kurdish, English, Scottish descended child?! All four grandparents have different heritage. Mum is English/Scottish and dad is Turkish/Kurdish.
Such a lovely video! I love the names Otto and Miles for a boy and then for girls I am a sucker for Margot, Anastasia and Ophelia! 💗
I hear a lot of l’s, e’s, r’s, and o’s in this list. The biggest association I have with Rupert is Rupert Grint, but that’s not a negative thing in my opinion. I feel like a Clementine could go by Emmy.
My daughter had a baby girl this August and she named her Jensyn Katherine, we call her Jensy Kate! So cute ❤
Ophelia and Nora have been on my list for ages! My sister-in-law just told me about a friend of hers who just had a baby girl named Mabel.
We just had our daughter and her name is Marlo Lorraine. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. 💗 Maybe an alternative to Margo if it gets too popular?
Love it so much!! ❤❤❤ congratulations
We had Ronnie on our list but not a fan of Ron! loving Romey (Rome-ee) for our boy due in December ❤
I'm a writer, and I have managed to create a world that is a lot bigger than I expected 😅 Now I'm running out of traditional names, so I tried using Scrabble tiles to see if I could come up with some new names. But it's difficult to decide whether I like them or not, since they still just look like letters jumbled together. Has any one done something like this and found a name you actually like??
Best thing for this is to take a normal name and just change one part to another letter or take a part of another name Eg. Lupert, Saral, Gavon, Ashwin, Jaxer, Stanlin, Envo, Michaen/Mikan etc etc. I think this gives the best compromise between a fantasy name and a name readers can actually remember!
@@JoanneMartinLucas Thank you. I was also trying to combine syllables from common Anglo-Saxon names, so I came up with Audriel, which I think is quite pretty.
@@Spicie95 Very pretty! That's a really good one. It's actually really fun to come up with them 😊
A coworker of mine recently had a baby Catalina, joining older sister Charlotte. Love those names
Gorgeous!
My son turned 45 in January of this year. His name is Blake Edward Cantrell. My oldest son's name is Kelly Hunter C. He will be 50 in April. I was was ahead of the name game years ago😅
Kelly is great
Maeve is an ancient Irish name Queen Maeve, my 32 yr old daughter is a Maeve 💚
Lol I have a Leonardo , Miles, and Sydney (daughter). It is great to have you back. Sending hugs ❣️
Love this SJ! Such gorgeous names, and one of our twin boys Remy too 😍 I sometimes still wish I’d have gone braver but Remy and Forrest was a compromise (I do love them though!) as I had to be reigned in a bit 🤣
Hope you’re all doing ok xx
My daughter’s name is Marcail (Mar|KALE) Scarlett. I love it so much and I’ll be surprised if we meet another Marcail. It’s very rare in the US.
Clementine nicknames (we know 3!) - 1) Eme (eh’-may), 2)Linni/Lina, 3) Minne/ Min/ Mina
I’m obsessed with Beau for a girl. My husband keeps saying absolutely not. But…he also said that about the name Hazel and we now have a 4 year old girl named Hazel 😂 we will see I guess
There's Bow or Bo. Maybe you might like Rowe.
Awhh I’ve got a 10 month old Hazel:)))
Just name her Belle. Beau sounds wrong on a girl
I like Clemntine, I like fruit names in general, she can go as Minty or Tina
I think Enzo comes from Vincenzo, the Italian version of Vincent!
My little girl is Nora Maeve 😅 now onto looking for another baby girl name!! So hard to choose!
This is so funny; all the boy names here were on my list for my baby boy in 2020 (except 2 that I love, but are already taken). Due a baby girl in Jan 2023 and you said my top girl name on the internet! Shhhhh, SJ. You’re too good 😂
Shhhhh no one knows! ha ha! xxxxxx What a coincidence!!
I would actually use Cleo as nickname for Clementine 😂
My son is Everest! I really love my sons name! We call him Rex or Rexy a lot too! Perfect name in my eyes. ❤
Clementine could be Em, Emmie, Minnie, Mina, Tina, Leni, or maybe Cleo.
We are tossing up between Frederick (Freddie), Ralph and Rupert.
I just can’t settle on one.
Everyone keeps saying I’ll know when I see him, fingers crossed.
