According to Manitoba’s Vital Statistics Agency, the most popular baby names in the province last year were Olivia and Liam.
Here are Manitoba’s top 10 girl names and top 10 boy names of 2019:
Girl Names
- Olivia

- Ava
- Amelia
- Hannah
- Charlotte
- Sophia
- Emma
- Abigail
- Avery
Boy Names
- Liam
- Noah
- Lucas
- William

In the girls’ top 10, Hannah, Emma, and Avery replaced Chloe, Isabella and Sophie.
In the boys’ top 10, James, Oliver and Carter replaced Logan, Jacob, and Alexander.
In 2018, the top two names were Olivia and Liam. (My 2018 post for Manitoba ranks Lucas/Luke first for boys because it was based upon provisional data.)
