How popular are these two names where you live?

Rocknmama

Olivia and Ava? They are numbers 2 and 3 on the ssa list (I think) but I have yet to know one of either name....

I know one little girl named Aalivya and one named Ava.

Ava is our first choice- but then we get nervous about it being so popluar! But honestly I only know of one Ava around us. And that is a friend of a friend. I don't know any Olivia's either.

Extremely! Seems like there is a Ava, Olivia, Emma, Emily, Madison, Kayley, Mackenzie, Aiden, Brayden, Caden and Owen born every day at the hospital I work at.

I'll never forget the day that 5 Aidens were born. All w/ different spellings!

J+R

Very popular where I live - along with Jackson!

thatgirlang

They aren't TOO popular for me... but what matters is how popular they are (or aren't) where you live.

johnsoar

I personally know 1 of each.  I have heard it a lot though.

Mereou12

I know of 2 Olivias and at least 6 Avas. And that's in a small town.

mrsmegs06

Olivia is a lot more popular than Ava.  But I have heard them both a lot.

Ivana_Stolichnaya

I don't know any girls named those names...although I really don't know any children at this point.  Olivia was one of my top choices, but my husband vetoed it.  His dumb excuse was it reminded him of Olivia Newton John....WHAT???  Who cares!

My 3 year old niece, who lives in Pennsylvania, is Ava. My sister told me that she took her to a museum kids' event and of five girls there, THREE were Avas.

A friend of mine, who lives in NJ, just had a baby named Olivia. I don't know too many others of those.

If you go to the SSA website, you can see the top 5 names by state, that might help you.

Vixey529

I know of at least one of each (toddlers)

Matt&Windy

Olivia is huge in metro TX...I don't know any Ava's tho.ugh

newportbride715

In RI, Ava is #1 and Olivia is #3.

mermer82

I know of three Ava's and two Olivia's.

I'd avoid if popularity is of concern to you.

I live in Michigan.?

notkateanymore

I know no less than 6 Olivias and 3 Ava's plus a couple of Eva's and an Eve.

houndbaby

Olivia is more popular than Ava here, but neither is really popular where I live

MrsH_2008

I'm from Ohio, where I know about 6 Olivia's and 3 Ava's, but here in SC I know 2 Olivia's and no Ava's. In Mass. where my in-law's live, there are lots of Ava's and no Olivia's. I would definitely check out your state (link above).

starsmaycollide

I can think of three off the top of my head, and they seem pretty popular to me. Maybe you should check out your state list if you're curious. The might be further down the list there.

kimberleigh30

very popular.

Harms80

They're common in my area but they are so cute and I'm not sick of them like I am Madison. 

P.S.  Your photo of Edward makes me drool..... mmmmm.

I love them both and though I have heard them a lot on the boards, I don't know a baby named either.

Kelly Madonna

I don't know any Olivia's. I know 1 Ava (18mths). I have an Abigail & she has another one in her daycare classroom and that is #4 I think.
