My source article called the rise of Liam in Arizona “relatively meteoric.”
Last year it placed fourth. The year before that it was 17th.
And the year before that? It did not even crack the Top 100.
Variant spellings I spotted in the top 100 include Sophia/Sofia, Mia/Mya or Maya/Mya (depends on how you pronounce “Mya”), Zoe/Zoey, Ariana/Arianna, Aiden/Ayden and Jackson/Jaxon/Jaxson.
I also noticed Penelope at #42 on the girls’ list and Lincoln at #75 on the boys’ list.
I’m not sure when the finalized version of Arizona’s 2013 baby name rankings will be released, but I’ll be watching for it. In the meanwhile, here are the rankings from 2012.
Once upon a time, the U.S. Social Security Administration put out annual twin name rankings (that is, rankings of the pairs of baby names given most frequently to sets of U.S. twins).
It all started in 2005 with simple, single-list rankings. Things got more interesting in 2009, when the SSA began splitting the rankings into gender-specific sub-rankings. Then in 2012, nothing. The updates stopped coming.
Now we have seven years’ worth of official twin name data from the U.S. government…and that’s it.
I used to keep these rankings in my directory, but they are so out-of-date now that I think it’s best to archive them in a single blog post, for easy reference. So, without further ado, here are the top baby names for twins born in the United States from 2005 to 2011 (in reverse order):
1. Jacob, Joshua (55 sets) 2. Matthew, Michael (52) 3. Daniel, David (50) 4. Jayden, Jordan (41) 5. Jayden, Jaylen (38) 6. Elijah, Isaiah (36) 7. Isaac, Isaiah (36) 8. Ethan, Evan (31) 9.

Observations on the 2009 rankings:
#9 and #44 on the girl-girl list are “Mackenzie, Madison” and “Madison, Mckenzie.”
#15 and #23 on the girl-girl list are both “Gabriella, Isabella.” There was probably supposed to be a spelling difference somewhere, but the SSA had the pairings listed identically.
#8, #9 and #34 on the girl-boy list are “Jayda, Jayden,” “Jada, Jaden” and “Jada, Jayden.”
#10 on the girl-boy list is “Aidan, Nadia” — the only pair of anagram names I’ve spotted on these twin lists (besides Heaven/Nevaeh, of course).
#26 and #27 on the girl-boy list are “Zachary, Zoe” and “Zachary, Zoey.”
