The List: 5 Most Popular Baby Names.

Were you ever like me when you were a kid and daydreamed about what you’d name your future children? I loved thinking of names. The funny thing was that I could easily think of names for girls, but names for boys? Not so much. Do you like these top baby names for 2010?

Boys
*Jacob
*Ethan
*Michael
*Jayden
*William

Girls
*Isabella
*Sophia
*Emma
*Olivia
*Ava

Hmm, I’m sensing a Twilight trend here. What are your favorite names, for boys or girls? I’ve always loved Hannah, Caroline, Mary Jane and Madison. 🙂

P.S. Fun Fact: The most popular girls’ name in 1981, the year I was born, was Jennifer. The name Melissa was #5, though! Woo hoo! xoxo

    Living in Scandinavia and being a part of a Norwegian/Danish couple we love many names.

    Boys:
    Trygve
    Ejnar
    Walter
    Erik

    Girls:
    Ragnhild
    Vera
    Liv
    Marie
    Lea

    Actually I found it so much easier to find girls names (so I guess the baby in my belly will be a boy…)

    I had the same problem coming up with boy names. My husband and I decided on the name Kaylee Elizabeth for our first girl a long time ago. We picked it years ago shortly after we married and we still haven't even started trying for our first baby yet. And just recently agreed on the name Adam for a boy. We really hope to have at least 1 girl so we can use the name we picked and it was so hard to come up with Adam that we hope we don't end up with 2 boys and have to come up with another name.

    Hey,
    I love to have a twin someday. I will name them Mizpah Louise and Mizrach Faith. Quite weird right? But I love both names. 🙂
