Change in Name Popularity
Change in popularity from 2020 to 2021
Tables provide the change in popularity from 2020 to 2021. Links to these tables are below. Names at the top of a list have the greatest change in popularity, while those at the bottom have the smallest change in popularity. Generally, the more popular a name, the smaller the change in popularity.
For each year, rank 1 indicates the most popular name, rank 2 the next most popular, and so forth. A change in popularity is indicated by the difference, either an increase or decrease, in ranks from one year to the next. We compared ranks for both years only if a name was in the top 1000 in at least one of the 2 years.
