Back in 2022, the North American country of Mexico welcomed 1,891,388 babies.
What were the most popular names among these babies? Sofia and Santiago.
Here are Mexico’s top 10 girl names and top 10 boy names of 2022:
Girl names
- Sofia
- Regina
- Maria Jose
- Valentina
- Camila
- Maria Fernanda
- Isabella
- Ximena
- Victoria
- Romina
Boy names
- Santiago
- Mateo
- Sebastian
- Leonardo
- Matias
- Daniel
- Emiliano
- Miguel Angel
- Diego
- Alejandro
In the girls’ top 10, Isabella and Romina replaced Valeria and Renata.
In the boys’ top 10, Alejandro replaced Gael.
A year earlier, in 2021, Mexico’s top names were also Sofia and Santiago.
P.S. As of mid-2025, these top-ten lists for 2022 are Mexico’s most up-to-date baby name rankings. (If I come across a longer set of ’22 rankings in the future, I’ll come back and update this post.)
