Top Baby Names of 2015

If you’re anything like me, choosing a name for baby just might be the hardest part of preparing for your little one’s arrival. There’s the back and forth of whether or not I really like a name, the unsolicited opinions of others swaying my love or hate of names, and then the task of convincing my partner that my name choices are worthy of consideration. It’s no easy feat! The more kids that I have, the trickier it gets. You’d think I’d get better at it, but it only gets harder!

The one thing I have learned, however, is that it’s more fun to keep your top name options tight lipped until the end because: a) it’s more fun to surprise people at delivery, and b) you really don’t need any opinions complicating your process and tainting your beloved names along the way!

I say pick a name that YOU, as parents, LOVE. Hopefully, that will be reason enough for your little one to love it too!

Whether I’m in the market for naming a baby or not, one thing I always love doing is checking out the year’s most popular baby names! I always find it entertaining to see what’s trending in the name game and how aligned my taste is with the rest of the baby namers out there.
