I'm surprised Jacob isn't #1 still.

That Jaden/Jayden trend just won't die.

While I like quite a few, I'm ready for some new names in the top 10. And no, I don't mean Jayden.

Part of me feels lucky that our most common top name (Henry) isn't on the list. But, SSA says it has jumped 20 spots in the last two years, so I suspect it soon will be. :\ Right now it is number 37!

Alice jumped 20 spots in *one* year--yikes!--but it is still number 107, which isn't too terrible.

I love it Henry and Alice. I keep expecting Henry to really boom, I hope it stays there.

John Green, the author, has two kids named Alice and Henry!

Ohmygosh, I know! And Alice's runner up name was Eleanor (they posted a vlog where they asked President Obama to name their baby, if I remember) and Eleanor is on our list as well. Apparently we are 0% original. :)

I'm such a John Green fan!

I've never understood the popularity of Jacob, myself, but the 3 I know (all in their 20's) are all really lovely.

Elizabeth is a top 10 name, that's a nice surprise. Abigail as well.

Noah surprises me a bit. top 10 sure, but #1?

I know two Noah's born this year, out of maybe 7 total babies I know of. I like it, but I'm not surprised to see it that high. Maybe the movie had something to do with it.

Anyone else notice Liam and William are basically the same name and they are both in the top five?
