If you're planning to welcome a baby girl into the fold in the coming year, but can't seem to come up with a moniker that's fit for your soon-to-be bundle of joy, consider choosing among the most popular baby girl names for 2021. From classic to up-and-coming to totally unique, the names likely to top the list in 2021 are as stunning as they are timeless. According to the Social Security Administration (SSA), which keeps track of the most popular baby names over the years, there's surprisingly little variation among the top baby girl names in the United States. In fact, the same names have held the top five spots since 2009: Olivia, Emma, Ava, Sophia, and Isabella.
Of course, if you don't want your daughter to share her name with any (or, in many cases, several) of her classmates, you have plenty of options outside of the classics. But if you are looking for a more conventional name, you'll likely be able to find a favorite among SSA's list of 100 most popular baby girls names for 2019 (which is the most recent data available), as well as BabyCenter's list of 100 most popular baby names in 2020. There aren't too many differences between the two lists, and 2021's list will likely look the same, save for a few possible exceptions.
According to the SSA, the name Kamala didn't even make the top 1,000 in 2019, but according to Good Housekeeping, Nameberry noted a 3,715 percent increase in interest in 2020, thanks to vice president-elect Kamala Harris. Likewise, Jill hasn't been in the top 1,000 since 2000, but BabyCenter saw a 12 percent increase ahead of Dr. Jill Biden taking office as first lady. Based on past lists and new predictions, here are 100 girls' names you can likely expect to see everywhere in 2021.
