Top Baby Names of 2014

May 8, 2015

It’s here! The Social Security Office has released the official list of top baby names of 2014. My son’s name, Mason, ranked #3 on the boy’s list, while my daughter’s name, Poppy, didn’t appear at all (and I like that, to be honest).

Noah and Emma were the most popular baby names of 2014, followed by a few newcomers to the top 10 list, like James and Charlotte, points out Time.

We’re guessing that Charlotte is here to stay for a few years at least, thanks to the new royal baby, Charlotte Elizabeth Diana. What do you think?

Here is the official list of top baby names of 2014:
