Parents are turning to sci-fi films, hit TV shows, and female athletes for baby name inspiration in 2024, according to data from BabyCenter. Names like Chani from “Dune: Part Two,” Percy from “Percy Jackson and the Olympians,” and characters from “Bridgerton” are trending. Women athletes like Kamilla Cardoso and Caitlin Clark are also influencing baby names, while names associated with tech leaders like Jeff Bezos and Andy Jassy are being avoided. Solar eclipse-related names are gaining popularity, with Eclipse being a top choice for girls. The top girl names for 2024 so far include Olivia, Emma, and Amelia, while the top boy names include Noah, Liam, and Oliver. This trend in baby names reflects a mix of pop culture influences and a desire for unique and meaningful names for children.
