What's In A Name? Most Popular Baby Names for 2014

12/3/2014

Add another blue ribbon to their collection – Sophia and Jackson topped the popular baby names list once again this year.

It may be her fifth year to rule, but Sophia isn't the only one feeling queenly – Emma and Olivia join her in the top three for the third year in a row. Madelyn broke in to rev up the competition, joining the top girls' list at number 10 and knocking out Chloe, who held the position last year.
While Jackson is basking in the spotlight for his second straight year, two of his J cousins have fallen into the shadows – Jayden and Jack were edged out of the top 10 in 2014. Replacing them are Caden, who clambered up from number 11 to number 8, and Logan, who loped into position 10.

Click on each name to see its popularity over time, common sibling names, and more.

Note: To capture true popularity, our exclusive baby names list combines names that sound the same but have multiple spellings (like Sophia and Sofia; Jackson and Jaxon). Our data comes from nearly half a million parents who shared their baby's name with us in 2014.
