Here are the girl names that saw the biggest increases in usage in terms of absolute change (number of babies) from 2023 to 2024:

Lainey, the second-fastest-rising girl name a year earlier, continues to be influenced by country singer Lainey Wilson. (In the U.S., Lainey was similarly one of the fastest-rising girl names in both 2023 and 2024.)

  1. Yashna, 28 baby girls
  2. Lewhat, 17
  3. Riyasat, 16

Yashna may have been influenced by a character in the Indian movie Hi Nanna, released in late 2023. (In the U.S., Yashna was the top girl-name debut of 2024 as well.)

Other girl-name debuts in the Canadian data included Apollonia (6), Galadriel (5), and Happy (5).
