Hello Baby Names

Here are the most popular baby names in the United States beginning with the letter D! A common theme we'll see throughout the entire alphabet is thay there are a lot of alternate spellings of already represented names on these lists... in the future, I'll make a post sharing the most popular names by sound combining all of those alternate spellings and adding up their true rankings by sound. That's something I had a lot of fun doing with last year's data, and it really does shake things up quite a bit.

Here are the top 60 most popular baby boy names beginning with the letter J in the United States! J is a very popular first initial for baby boys - ever J name on this list ranks in the top 1000 (technically top 650!) in the United States.

What is your pet's name?

It seems like this past couple weeks everyone has been adopting puppies, kittens, chickens, or fish and want name ideas!

Typically I get 1-2 pet name messages a month, but recently ive been getting more pet name inquiries than baby name inquiries!

My dog is named Maisie! She is almost seven and the best girl in the entire world (imo.) Our cats have food names, Gherkin, Lemon, amd Pad Kee Meow (we found her behind our favorite Thai restaurant and named her after my favorite dish!)

These are the sixty most popular baby girl names in the united states, beginning with the letter j according to the social security administration's latest data.

This is one of those letters where it seems like the entire list is just comprised of names that are alternate spellings of one another on the list. So many Juliet alternatives, especially!

Here are the sixty most popular baby boy names in the United States beginning with the letter I. We have a big mix of classics, popular names that have been around forever, and then some more unique alternatives to the more classic names, along with alternate spellings of more common names.

Onto the letter I! Here are the 60 most popular baby girl names in the United States beginning with I, ranging from the very popular Isabella and Isla and Ivy to the far outside the top 1000 names like Isobel, Ilyana, and Illiana.

The pattern we've seen with just about every letter so far continues.... there are a lot of alternate spellings represented multiple times on these lists. As a spelling purist I tend to gravitate towards the most accepted spelling but do love to see all of the different iterations.

If you were naming 3 daughters, one from each column, what would their names be? I'd have Iris, Inez, and Idalia!

Here are the top 60 most popular girl names beginning with H in the United States based on 2025's baby name data!

Compared to the boy name list, as predicted, there are definitely a lot more alternate spellings represented on this list, but I always think that's interesting to see! 10% if this list alone is Hailey/Haley/Hailey-adjacent names!

Like the boy name list, there are so many H girl names that I just love! Harlow and Harriet are two that have a special place in my heart.

With that said, let's play the naming game again.... if you had to name 3 daughters, one from each column, which names would you choose? I'd have Harmony, Harriet, and Harlowe (normally I'm not an alternate spelling gal, but desperate times call for desperate measures.)

H is a fantastic letter for baby names... so many great H boy names! Special shoutout to a few of my favorites: Henry, Hugo, Hank, Harlan, Hollis, and Harper!

As far as the repetitive names go, H is pretty good for only having a few alternate spellings represented. I find that the boy names tend to have less occurrences of popular alternate spellings as a whole, so we will see how the girl name list looks...
