This Is the Most Popular Name in the U.S. Right Now
Here's what you'll likely be calling everyone soon.

If you glance back on the decades, it's obvious which names were trending at the time. Born in the early '90s? Ashleys reigned supreme. And in the '80s, it seems like everyone was named Michael. However, today, names are getting more and more creative, especially thanks to pop culture. After all, who would've thought North and Apple would be instantly recognizable? And if you're into more bohemian names—looking at you, Harper—there are plenty of those as well. But as for the most popular names, there are two that stand out. According to the most recent Social Security data of babies born in 2019, nationally, the names Olivia and Liam come out on top. Yet, that varies state-by-state. Read on to find out what the most popular names are right now in your state. And if you want to know how risky your area is, This Is the Most Dangerous State in the U.S.
