North Carolina's Unique Baby Name Trends: A TikTok Revelation

North Carolina Baby Name Trends: Unique Choices Revealed A recent TikTok video has highlighted the uniquely popular baby names in North Carolina. The video, created by name consultant Morgan, revealed names appearing frequently in the state's top 100 list but not nationally. For boys, names like Easton, River, Atlas, Kayden, Bryson, Harrison, Jace, and Sawyer were highlighted. Girls' names included Georgia, Raelynn, Savannah, Emerson, Skylar, Ailany, Nevaeh, Hadley, Mary, Serenity, Eliza, Magnolia, Rylee, Margaret, and Cora. Morgan noted that to qualify, names needed to appear at least 120 times (boys) and 96 times (girls) in birth records. Interestingly, the high frequency of the name "Mary" prompted speculation about its use as a middle name in combination names. "I feel like now people are using more like modern ones," Morgan commented, suggesting a trend toward more contemporary pairings. This data provides a fascinating glimpse into naming preferences in North Carolina, offering a unique perspective on current trends.
