Top Baby Name Trends of 2022 - And What They Say About You

Top Baby Name Trends of 2022 

Each year, our fave sites like The Bump and Nameberry publish a list of the top baby name trends. And every year, we can't wait to see it!

We love to hear a unique name shouted across the playground, or see a name written on the board at daycare.

Here are the hottest baby names of the year! 

NAMES: Kai, River, Remi, Rowan, Quinn, Elliot

TREND: Gender Neutrality

We've seen a rise in gender neutral names, and we're HERE for it! As society becomes more inclusive, expect these names to become more popular. We're hoping everyone loves this trend.


NAMES: Willow, Hazel, Laurel, Jasper, Ivy, Wren, Sienna 

TREND: Nature-inspired

Maybe it's a post-covid thing, but after two years of escaping the city to spend more time in nature, we're seeing a rise of nature-y names! We love these picks above. Birkenstock-fans are loving this trend.


NAMES: Margaret, Martin, Kathleen, Eric, Wayne

TREND: Retro

I mean...'retro' is a strong word for Wayne. But, we love that these names, which were most popular in the 50s and 60s, are making a bigger comeback. Old Souls love this trend.

The world has seen tough times these last few years, and 2022 was no exception. Some people have been looking to the higher-ups for name hope and inspiration. Your daily horoscope lovers are especially into this trend.
