Top 100 Girl Names 2025
Written by Sarah at Adored Names
The long-awaited list is here. In the baby naming world, it is always an exciting time of year when the United States Social Security Administration (USA SSA) releases their most current baby name data. This means that we now have information on naming trends from 2024 and let me tell you, some amazing names made the cut.
Below is the list of the top 100 girl names according to the USA SSA. I have also taken the liberty to point out the names that increased in popularity and those that decreased.
The increase and decrease information is shown in this way:
(10. Sofia ↑ 2) indicates that the name Sofia has moved up two positions in rank since 2023, where the name sat in the number 12 spot.
(4. Charlotte ↓ 1) indicates that the name Charlotte has moved down one position in rank since 2023, where the name sat in the number 5 spot.
(NEW TO TOP 100) Indicates that the name is new to the top 100 list this year and has not been in the top 100 in the past.
(RETURNING TO TOP 100) Indicates that the name has returned to the top 100 this year after not being on in the year or years prior, but having been in the top 100 in the past.

In this line of work I hear it all the time that people want to “avoid a name that is too popular” or “nothing that is overused”. While I do not think there is anything wrong with that at all (I love uncommon names), I like to avoid using the term “over used” as it gives a negative connotation to the name. Instead, I prefer to use the term “much loved” when it comes to the top ten (or even the top 100) names. And that’s exactly what they are! They are loved by so many and that is why they are chosen so often.
Maybe you are viewing this list to see what names you wish to avoid or maybe you are viewing this list because you want a name that others have also grown to love and appreciate. Either reason is completely valid and I hope that this list helps you in your naming journey.
Now let us get into the names. Here are the top 100 girl names of 2023 according to the USA SSA.
