It can be tough when you’re trying to settle eon a name for your little one.
Especially since there’s always the worry that once you think you’ve found that magical moniker, it’ll end up going out of fashion – and quick.
But if you’re looking for a name that hasn’t even hit peak popularity yet – or is simply having a resurgence in popularity – look no farther.
The folks at Nameberry have made things a little easier by putting together a list of what they’ve dubbed the “hottest” baby names of the year for boys, girls and even some gender neutral picks.
Each and every one of the names, they said, has gotten more attention from parents-to-be so far this year than they did during the same time period last year.
A mix of unique, stylish, and unusual, these names are perfect for parents who want to be ahead of the curve when it comes to naming their little girl, boy, or simply want a name that could suit either.
