i have many thoughts on this, but primarily...
noah is number two and rising? thats sad. that was our top boys name. also, i was surprised to see amelia/emilia at number one for girls. no idea it had shot up so quickly. the husband and i had amelia on our list too. bummer.

ETA: this is the babynames.com list, not the SSA list

Yay!! in my list the only one would be Jude but I don't plan on using that as a full name, Julian with the nick name Jude. I really like Rhys too but it's not really on my list.
