Are you on the hunt for a unique baby name that exudes "cool" but hasn’t been overused? Check out these 31 names popular among Millennial moms. Why? Because these names are not only incredibly modern but also barely existed before the year 2000. In recent years, they have surged in popularity, thanks to Millennial—and soon Gen Z—parents who are eager to find distinctive names for their little ones.
Most of these names were drawn from a list generated by the family heritage site MooseRoots, which sifted through data from the Social Security Administration to find names that were given to fewer than 100 newborns before 2000 but are now rapidly gaining popularity. Additionally, some names have simply resonated with Millennial parents who want to steer clear of classic, overused choices.
Essentially, Millennial parents believe that their children—born into either Gen Z or Gen Alpha—deserve names that are trendy and unique. Take a look at our list of names favored by Millennials!
