Top Boy Names 2010s

On the boys’ side, longtime Nameberry favorite Asher ranks at Number 1.

　　Nameberry’s Top 10 for boys departs more from the US Top 10 than do the girls’ names, with no names from our boys’ Top 10 also ranking in the national count. Nameberry parents seem more willing than average to choose adventurous names for their sons, though all the top boys’ names have traditional roots.

　　Along with Asher, other Biblical choices in the Top 10 are Ezra, Silas and Jasper, while Atticus and Milo have ancient roots in Rome and Greece respectively. Declan is Irish and Wyatt is derived from an English surname. Oliver enjoys the most widespread international popularity, while Henry is the only classic male name.
