Ailany, Truce rise in popularity as baby names in 2024 — but Olivia and Liam hold onto the top spots

Olivia and Liam are new parents' top choices for baby names in 2024 for the sixth year in a row, the Social Security Administration announced. 

The agency last week released its annual list of most popular baby names in honor of Mother's Day, with data showing Americans love the familiar when it comes to naming their children. 

Emma took the second slot for girls, and Noah for boys, also for the sixth year in a row, the agency said. The slight difference was that Luna dropped out of the top 10 — to be replaced by Sofia — which entered at number 10 for the first time.
