Top baby names in Germany, 2024

Flag of Germany
Flag of Germany

Last year, the European country of Germany welcomed 677,100 babies.

What were the most popular names among these babies?

Germany doesn’t release official baby name rankings, so we don’t know for sure. But two unofficial sets of 2024 rankings — one from the Society for the German Language (GfdS), the other from name researcher Knud Bielefeld — agree (again) that Germany’s top boy name was Noah.

(The rankings by the GfdS account for over 91% of the first names bestowed in Germany in 2024, while the rankings by Bielefeld account for about 36% of the babies born in Germany in 2024. Both sets of rankings combine different spellings of the same name.)

Here are Germany’s top girl names, according to both sources:

Girl names (GfdS)Girl names (Bielefeld)

2EmiliaSophia
3EmmaEmma
4MiaHannah
5LinaMia
6Hannah/HannaLina
7EllaElla
8MilaLia
9Klara/ClaraLeni
10Lia/LiahMila

And here are Germany’s top boy names:

3LeonElias
4Luca/LukaLuca
5PaulLeon
6Henry/HenriTheo
7TheoFinn
8EmilPaul
9EliasEmil
10Louis/LuisHenry

Interestingly, the name Liam dropped off both top-10 lists last year. On the GfdS’s list it was replaced by Theo, and on Bielefeld’s list it was replaced by Henry.

Lies (pronounced LEES) is a Dutch diminutive of Elisabeth, Nine (pronounced NEE-nah) is a Frisian short form of Katherine, and Suus is a palindromic Dutch short form of Susanna.

Brieuc may be a reference to the French city of Saint-Brieuc, which was named after a 5th-century Welsh monk called Brioc.
