2020 Scottish Top 100 Names

Scotland just released its name data. For boys, Jack is the most popular name for the thirteenth year in a row. Alexander also re-entered the top 10 while Archie and Finlay came in for the first time. Charlie, Alfie, and Lewis left the top 10. For girls, the most popular name is now Isla. Isla also tops the charts in New Zealand. Regarding our love for British trends, Isla, which just entered the top 100 in 2018, has a bright future ahead. Lily also returned to the top 10, replacing Charlotte. 

Regarding the entire top 100, Roman, Joey, Finley, Teddy, and Myles are newly popular for boys. Robbie, Frankie, and Brody also re-entered the top 100. They replaced Jax, Gabriel, Alex, Sam, Henry, Aidan, Aiden, and Carson. For girls, Remi, Arabella, Alba, Maeve, Indie, Ayda, Rosa, Aila, and Autumn became newly popular. Mollie, Quinn, Nina, Eden, and Piper also re-entered the top 100. They replaced Matilda, Cara, Darcy, Hollie, Evelyn, Nova, Penelope, Clara, Brooke, Georgie, Sadie, Rowan, Lola, and Julia.

Names Inspired by Ivy

Ivy was one of the nature names that emerged during the Victorian Era. It ranked in the 200s in America and was a top 100 pick in England before its decline. Over the past decade, Ivy became a "j-shaped" revival, meaning it came back more popular than ever before; it entered the top 100 in 2018. Parents could be seeking Ivy as an alternative to Ava, another name that is both vintage and modern. However, Ivy has several differences. Even though the nature name is completely feminine, it feels more tailored than girly. Despite ending in the "ee" sound, Ivy sounds more confident than cute (the poison ivy and Ivy League associations could be factors). For those who find Ivy too popular, are looking for sister names, or just love the name, here are some similar names below the top 100: Aster A flower name that also possibly means "star," Aster is rising as a tailored girls' choice even though it is also rising, to a lesser extent, for boys.  Avis This short

Disney Boys' Names

They belong to characters in Disney animated shorts and movies.  However, as with girls' names, Disney boys' names aren't necessarily those from the movies. Instead, they reflect the values of Walt Disney; vintage names with built-in dreams that are neither childish nor heavy. These names sound child-friendly but appropriate for adults. Here are some boys' names infused with Disney values that will especially appeal to Disney fans: Arthur Arthur "Wart" is the protagonist who draws out the sword and becomes king in  The Sword in the Stone . Disney Legend Art Babbitt injects the name with more dreams. Nickname "Art" and the aardvark of children's literature and television fame add on a friendly vibe.   Calvin Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes comics might bring up childhood memories. On the accomplished side, there's Protestant reformer John Calvin (1509-1564) and former President Calvin
