Ontario’s top baby names were just revealed

If you’re like me, you have a running list of baby names in your phone notes. It’s one of the biggest decisions you will ever make (if you want to be a parent, that is), and it’s always interesting to see and hear what other people are deciding on. Each year, the Government of Ontario releases the top baby names from the year prior, and we have the latest addition to go over.

Here are Ontario’s top baby names from 2024.

Okay, so this was very shocking to me. The top girl name has been at the number one spot for a whopping 16 consecutive years! Any guesses?

If you guessed Olivia, you would be right.

The full list of top girl names is as follows:

  1. Olivia
  2. Charlotte
  3. Sophia
  4. Amelia
  5. Emma
  6. Ava
  7. Maya
  8. Sofia
  9. Mia
  10. Isla

Over on the boys’ side, the top name has held the first position for six years straight: Noah.

  1. Noah
  2. Liam
  3. Theodore
  4. Oliver
  5. Jack
  6. Henry
  7. Benjamin
  8. Lucas
  9. Muhammad
  10. Leo

Pretty interesting stuff, and if you have a baby on the way anytime soon and are hoping to avoid overly popular names, this is definitely news you can use.
