About this list
By gender: 146 for boys only, 91 for girls only. 50% of the names in Hebrew Baby Names have a documented meaning.
237 names are in the 2024 US Social Security file. Best ranked: Noah (#2, boys), James (#5, boys), Isabella (#7, girls), Elijah (#8, boys), Ava (#9, girls).
Counts are distinct names; a name recorded for both genders counts once. A documented meaning is a real gloss in our data, not an import placeholder. Origin is the label recorded in the dataset: "English", "Muslim" and "Quranic" are collection labels, not languages, so they are counted as no language label. Source: U.S. Social Security Administration, Popular Baby Names (national data, 1880-2024). Counts are Social Security card applications for births in the United States; names with fewer than 5 births in a year are not listed, and spelling variants are counted separately.
