    Olivia, sadly. It's a beautiful name that I would have maybe liked to use, but the popularity of the name around here right now is crazy! I see Olivias popping up everywhere.

    Also, I agree with Ava being one of those names.

    Ava, Olivia, Sophie/a, Isabelle/a are the Sarah, Jennifer, Jessica, and Ashley of today IMO. 

    But, at least they're all pretty names, even if they are overly popular. 

     

    Yep!

    I agree with Olivia and Emma being very common today. Also, I see Addison a lot.

    The creators of Nameberry wrote the book 'Beyond Jennifer and Jason' in the 80s. Their updated version is ....'Beyond Ava and Aidan'.

    I'd say Isabella. Partially because of it's popularity, but also because a lot of Jennifers (including myself) go by a nickname (Jen, Jenny/Jenni/Jennie/etc). I think a lot of Isabellas go by Bella, but some probably go by Izzy or something.

    I do think Sophia and Olivia are good comparisons too. I see those everywhere!

    I should show DH and MIL this thread. He likes Ava and she keeps suggesting Jennifer and Jessica! Grrrr.

    Your MIL might be on to something.  Naming your child Jennifer would be totally unique nowadays!

    I actually don't know a single child named Ava.

    Madison or Isabella around my way. I think it depends on where you are. We have a ton of Emma's and Olivia's as well. So all of those would be the Jennifer, Jessica, Heather and Kristen of our youth.

    The SSA used to give you the option of seeing how many babies were given each name, and what the percentage of total babies born that year that number was.  So I agree with Ava, Sophia, Emma and Olivia as far as ranking, the percentage of Jennifers at its peak was much higher than the percentage of Sophias at its peak.

    My dad chose to name me Jennifer because it was popular back then. Way to follow the crowd.

    I'd say Sophia, Isabella, and Mia are popular. I only know of one Ava and she's.

    Emma, Olivia, and Sophia.  Addison is definitely creeping up there. And it seems every little girl has the middle name of Grace.

    I don't think any name is a Jennifer.  The percentage of Jennifers in the 80s was way higher than the top name today.
