Thomas caught my eye — it’s a top-10 boy name in Boston, but (in 2022) it only managed to rank 22nd state-wide and 45th country-wide.

Massachusetts’ top baby names of 2023 won’t be revealed until May, when the new SSA data comes out, but the state’s #1 names in 2022 were Olivia and Noah. (Noah won by a wide margin, in fact. It was given to 142 more baby boys than second-place Liam.)

Boy names on the rise in Canada in 2022

hot air balloons

Which names were the trendiest among baby boys in Canada last year?

Below you’ll find Canada’s fastest-rising and highest-debuting boy names of 2022.

Just keep in mind that we can’t directly compare rises and debuts in the Canadian data to rises and debuts in the U.S. data, because Canada releases a lot less data than the U.S. does. (For more details, see the post on Canada’s rising girl names.)

Rises (absolute)

Here are the boy names that saw the biggest increases in usage in terms of absolute change (numbers of babies) from 2021 to 2022:

  1. Robin, rose from 129 to 220 baby boys (+91)
  2. Walker, 238 to 300 (+62)
  3. Muhammad, 535 to 595 (+60)
  4. Casey, 153 to 206 (+53)
  5. Leon, 294 to 347 (+53)

I’m so intrigued by Robin! Anyone know why it got such a boost last year?

Rises (relative)

Here are the boy names that saw the biggest increases in usage in terms of relative change (percentages of babies) from 2021 to 2022:

  1. Mattheo, rose from 5 to 18 baby boys (260%)
  2. Shepherd, 9 to 28 (211%)
  3. Affan, 7 to 21 (200%)
  4. Ghaith, 5 to 15 (200%)
  5. Abdallah, 7 to 20 (1.86%)

Debuts

Finally, here are the boy names that debuted most impressively in Canada’s baby name data in 2022:

  1. Rabaab, 14 baby boys
  2. Navaan, 13
  3. Zoraver, 11
  4. Bir, 10
  5. Kabiel, 10
    • Kabiel was tied with Kyland and Valor, both of which were also given to 10 babies.

Other boy-name debuts included Dutton (9), Halston (8), Astro (7), Rip (6), and Laker (5).

Dutton and Rip were no doubt influenced by the TV series Yellowstone, which follows the wealthy, ranch-owning Dutton family of Montana. The foreman of the Duttons’ ranch is named Rip Wheeler. Both Dutton and Rip have been on the rise in the U.S. recently as well.

And if you’re curious about the decreases, Canada’s fastest-falling boy names in terms of absolute change were Logan, Benjamin, and Noah, and in terms of relative change were Bauer, Larry, and Eamon.
