How Many Babies Got -Ayden Names in 2009?
| 26 July 2010 | Filed under Baby Names, Boy Names, Girl Names, Popular Baby Names, Unisex Baby Names |
We figured out how many baby boys were given -ayden names a week ago.
We figured out how many baby girls were given -ayden names earlier today.
So how many babies overall were given names like Jayden, Kaedin and Bradyn last year?
| # -aydens | # babies | % -aydens | |
| Boys: | 102,992 | 2,095,910 | 4.9% |
| Girls: | 10,113 | 2,001,968 | 0.5% |
| TOTAL: | 113,105 | 4,097,878 | 2.8% |
The grand total is (at least) 113,105 babies. That’s about 2.8%, or about 1 in 36.
How much more popular do you think this name group will get (before it begins to fall out of style)?
I hope this trend ends soon! My 3-year old Vocation Bible School class was filled with -ayden’s and -ayton’s. I gave up trying to keep everyone straight about an hour into the first day and just called a lot of the kids Sweetie and Honey.
I’d be interested to know how many kids have -ayton type names, but since they are more “legitimate” there are so many variations.
That’s a good question, Julie! I wonder about the -ayton names as well. I’ll try to research them and get a post up within the next few weeks.
