Change in popularity from 2009 to 2010
The tables below show the change in popularity of baby names from 2009 to 2010. Names at the top of a list have the greatest increases in popularity, while those at the bottom have the greatest decreases 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. "Popularity change" is the difference in ranks from one year to the next. We compared ranks for both years only if a name was in the top 500 in at least one of the 2 years. With this restriction, we tabulated 520 male names and 526 female names.
