Each year, one website predicts the top baby names of the year for each state, and below you'll find the top baby names in Georgia.

Living in the South, parents are proud to honor their history and families.  So, it's no surprise we see some fun, unique names for babies in Georgia. Lists of boys names may include names like Roosevelt and  Ulysses, and lists of girl names include Eddie, Charlie and Tommie.

Each year, the Social Security Administration publishes the totals for the first names from all Social Security card applications for births that occurred in the US since 1880. The publication is the most complete record of first name usage in the United States. Because Social Security can take quite a while to compile data on the most popular baby names for each year, Names.Org used data on the actual births in recent years to predict the most popular baby names for 2022. Their formula looks at the five most recent years’ worth of data from the Social Security Administration to detect any trends. With their results, these are the predicted most popular baby names for 2022.

We are taking the list and going from the bottom to the top of the baby names for Georgia. In 2022, these are the top boy and girl names listed below.
