Re: Any last predictions for the SSA list of most popular names, US 2022?
in reply to a message by Realisticmind379
I've run into quite a few my age (early thirties) and younger, though they were all either immigrants themselves or first-generation Americans. Nancy is used quite a bit among Hispanics, whereas Barbara is still used among Eastern Europeans (I've encountered the nickname Basia several times).
I hope you're right about the -ayden name trend altogether dying down. Without it I wouldn't mind the name Aidan at all (or probably Hayden, for that matter); but I'm completely worn out on the sound now.

From what I've seen over the past several years, most of these -Aidan/Aiden/Ayden/Aden/Aeden (God whatever else 😂) type names have been trending downwards on the charts, including Aiden/Aidan/etc. I also wouldn't really mind Aiden/Aidan either if it weren't for all those other names following it, so I completely know what you mean. It needs a long rest.
Also out of curiosity I decided to look up the ranking for these once uber trendy names from last year to the previous list (and just to see) Here's where they currently stand from 2020 to 2021. Indeed most of them seem to be going down, apart from a few exceptions.
Aiden #24-#26 (Not by much)
Aidan #261-#286
Adan #470-#461 (⬆️)
Aden #664-#681 (For the longest time, I thought this was a completely separate name, along with Adan. 😅 Oops, silly me.)
Ayden #112-#143
Brayden #114-#131
Braden #815-#907 (I can see this one falling from the charts. If not this year, then likely in the next upcoming year or so. Although this variant I can tolerate the most. I don't know why but the 'Y' spelling just seems more bratty to me.
Caden #242-#230 (⬆️)
Caiden #381-#419
Cayden #268-#289
Kaden #253-#260
Kaiden #139-#162
Kayden #99-#108
Apart from Aiden/etc, this is probably the only other one of these name I'm able to tolerate a bit more than the rest. But there's such an nauseating number of spellings. I'm not even sure I got them all! 😅 I know there's at least 6 to 7 of them
Hayden #177-#176 (⬆️ Always seem to be forgetting about this one)
Jayden #37-#41 (Pretty soon 'Aiden' will be the only one left occupying the top 100, assuming it doesn't surpass Jayden before then. 😊 I doubt it though.
Jaden #292-#307
Jaiden #396-#415
Aiden #24-#26 (Not by much)
Aidan #261-#286
Adan #470-#461 (⬆️)
Aden #664-#681 (For the longest time, I thought this was a completely separate name, along with Adan. 😅 Oops, silly me.)
