According to Statistics Austria, “12.5% of all newborn girls and 14.6% of all newborn boys were given one of the 10 most popular first names” in 2024.

At the other end of the spectrum are the thousands of names that were given to a single baby each last year. Here’s a selection:

Unique girl namesUnique boy names
Aorta, Beppa, Chisimdi, Desdina, Ekklesia, Febronia, Gustava, Hibat, Ikonija, Jolongi, Krinka, Lhanzey, Mrittika, Notburga, Ofri, Pinia, Rimpy, Songül, Tsvetelina, Uerda, Vanadis, Wranga, Yangtso, ZorjanaAerzu, Benneth, Cvijetin, Daphnis, Encho, Flavio, Gervin, Hanrui, Ireneus, Jandost, Kalsang, Linneo, Menippos, Nikolozi, Osimhen, Peyami, Reie, Shkelzen, Takuto, Utku, Veton, Wenz, Yetkin, Zhihmond

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Aorta — the word for the largest artery in the human body — used as a personal name before.

Notburga was the name of a medieval Austrian saint, and Osimhen may have been inspired by Nigerian soccer player Victor Osimhen.

Finally, here’s a link to Austria’s 2023 rankings, if you’d like to compare.

Mississippi quadruplets: Kenleigh, Kristen, Kayleigh, Kelsey

quadruplets and stork

In February of 2014, Kimberly Fugate of Mississippi went into labor. She was expecting triplets, but learned in the delivery room that she would be having quadruplets.

What did she name the four identical baby girls?

Kenleigh Rosa, Kristen Sue, Kayleigh Pearl, and Kelsey Roxanne. (Kelsey was the “hidden surprise.”)

Kimberly’s first child, a daughter named Katelyn, was 10 when the quads were born.

(I’ve also blogged about quads with Sh-names and quads with Ch-names.)

Last year, the British overseas territory of Gibraltar welcomed 331 babies — 148 baby girls and 183 baby boys.

What were the most popular names among these babies? Olivia for girls and Noah/Thomas (tie) for boys.

Here are Gibraltar’s top girl names and top boy names of 2024:

  3. Leon, Liam, Oliver, Ryan, Theo, and Tommy, 3 each (6-way tie)

The name Jamie was also given to three babies, but my source didn’t include much information on gender, so I don’t know if these three babies were boys, girls, or a mix of both.

The 36 names given to two babies each were Addison, Alexander, Annabelle, Arabella, Ariana, Axel, Celine, Charles, Emily, Emma, Enzo, Evan, George, Hugo, Jacob, Jesse, Julia, Kai, Kylian, Leo, Lucia, Luna, Maisie, Mia, Michael, Mila, Nicolas, Riley, Robyn, Romeo, Romy, Salma, Sofia, Stella, Thiago, and Zack.
