According to Jamaica’s Registrar General’s Department (RGD), the top baby names in Jamaica in 2011 were Jayden and Gabrielle.
Here are the top 5 names for each gender:
Boy Names | Girl Names |
---|---|
1. Jayden 2. Daniel 3. Joshua 4. Justin 5. Jaden & Ajani [tie] |
1. Gabrielle 2. Amelia 3. Tianna 4. Brianna 5. Jada |
And some extra facts:
- While Jayden remained the top boy name, usage decreased nearly 13% from 2010 to 2011.
- Ajani rose to 5th from 8th (2010).
- Jada rose to 5th from in 9th (2010).
- The top middle names were Anthony (again) and Abigail (beating 2010’s Amanda).
The only other popularity list I have for Jamaica is from 2008, when the top names were Daniel and Brihanna.
