Did your child's name make the list?

[cutebaby06]

Girl names sure to sky-rocket:

• Amelia
• Charlotte/Charley (sure to be a Top 10 soon)
• Scarlett
• Harper (the fastest-rising girl name in the Top 100)
• Penelope (especially now that a certain Kardashian, possibly responsible for the “Mason” boom, named her daughter Penelope. Sigh.)
  
• Adele
• Estelle/Stella
• Briella/Brielle (the fastest-rising girl name of 2011)
• Mila (another name that skyrocketed last year — presumably because of a Ms. Kunis)
• Aubrey/Aubree
• Molly
• Violet
• Lucy

More girl names on the rise:

• Isla and other short -ah ending names: Aria, Luna, Cora, Eva, Nora, and Clara (in the tradition of Emma, Olivia, and Ava).
• Elsie, Elise, Eliza and Eloise (the new El- names?)
• Ivy
• June
• Juniper
• Olive
• Names ending in -lyn or -lynn (Evelyn, Raelynn, Emmalynn, Addilynn, etc.). This is a huge trend.
• Names ending in -anna (Audrianna, Lilliana, Aviana, etc.)
• Alice
• Bryn
• Harlow
• Kinsley/Kinley/Kensley
• Vera
• Ember and other “Em-” names like Emery and Emerson

• Kennedy

Boy names sure to sky-rocket:

• Brantley (the fastest-rising boy name in 2011)
• Jackson and all of its alternative spellings: Jaxon, Jaxen, Jaxon
• Declan (the next Aiden?)

• Asher
• Silas/Sylas
• Milo
• Wyatt

More boy names on the rise:

• Iker (the fastest-rising boy name of 2011)
• Raylan/Rylen
• Maximiliano
• More “X” names: Felix, Axel, Jax, Rex, Dexter, Dax, and Lennox.
• Harvey (It’s still in the 800s here in the States, but it just entered the U.S. Top 1,000 last year after the name ranked in England’s Top 50. The next name import?)
• Flynn
• Jasper
• Atticus
• Abram
• Abel
• Cato and other “-O” ending names: Arlo, Hugo, Theo, and Nico

Thank goodness none of my kid's names are on those lists!

Brielle is my third daughter's middle name. I see a lot of classic names on these lists.

None of my 3 are on there. My second was Aidan, so his was mentioned, but still not on there.
