Frida and Carl, the No. 1 names of 2023, are now in fifth and second place, respectively.

In the girls’ top 10, Nora replaced Sofia.

In the boys’ top 10, August and Theo replaced Malthe and Valdemar.

And the curious girl name Søs — short for Søster, the Danish word for “sister” — has been on the rise recently:

  • 2024: 138 baby girls named Søs in Denmark
  • 2023: 99 baby girls named Søs in Denmark
  • 2022: 79 baby girls named Søs in Denmark
  • 2021: 43 baby girls named Søs in Denmark
  • 2020: 20 baby girls named Søs in Denmark
  • 2019: 18 baby girls named Søs in Denmark

I can’t account for its trendiness, but I can tell you that the English equivalent, Sis, has never appeared in the U.S. data. (The name Sister has, though.)

Greenland’s top baby names of 2022, on the other hand, are still unknown at this point. Why? Because whoever edited the country’s English-language statistical booklet, Greenland in Figures 2023 [PDF], forgot to update the small section about baby names on page seven. :)

In 2021, the top baby names in Denmark were Alma and Oscar, the top baby names in the Faroes were Lea/Lív and Jónas, and the top baby names in Greenland were Lea/Luna and Aputsiaq/Marco.

Update, Jul. 2024: Greenland’s top baby names of 2022 — Inuk and Leo for boys, Aviana and Ivalu for girls — were finally included in Greenland’s 2024 [PDF] booklet. :)
