Help[Facts] Netherlands: most popular names for 2020 have been released
https://www.svbkindernamen.nl/nl/kindernamen/ (in Dutch; click on the white button "Bekijk de populairste namen")
The website of the Sociale Verzekeringsbank (SVB) appears to have undergone a redesign, as the general URL for name statistics has been changed. The previous URL (see below) is currently dead, but was still operational when I last checked a few days ago:
https://www.svbkindernamen.nl/int/nl/kindernamen/wizard/zoeknaam/ (in Dutch)
If it is still dead in a few days from now, then you might want to consider updating the link featured at:
https://www.behindthename.com/top/lists/netherlands
And just in case it might come in handy somehow: here is a news article about the release of the most popular names for 2020:
https://nos.nl/artikel/2363406-noah-en-emma-blijven-populairste-voornamen.html (in Dutch; use DeepL Translator or Google Translate if necessary)
ETA (edited to add): as of 2020, the SVB will no longer be making separate lists for boys' names and girls' names, "because there are many names that are given to boys and girls". I take this to mean that they want to be more gender-neutral, or politically correct if you will. Admirable, but I imagine that this will make it harder for you to interpret and compile the Dutch name popularity statistics from now on. :( For more information about this, please see the question "Waarom is er 1 lijst voor alle kindernamen?" ("Why is there 1 list for all children's names?") in the FAQ at:
https://www.svbkindernamen.nl/nl/kindernamen/veelgestelde-vragen.html (in Dutch)
