50+ new baby names of 2020 (that you probably haven’t heard of)

Loading

Whether you’re a first-time mom-to-be or have already welcomed little ones into the world,

choosing a name for your newborn

is no easy feat. Some parents are set up with family names they’ll pass down to their children and
wouldn’t dream of choosing anything different, while others are all about giving their kids a

unique name

that will stand out for years to come.

Every year,

new baby names

emerge as fresh alternatives to classics like

James

or

Elizabeth

— or trendy names like

Henry

or

Mila

. Of course, unless you’re completely making a name up from scratch, most names have been used

somewhere

before. But that doesn’t mean you can’t get ahead of the trend by using a new-ish name that’s only
recently become more widely used.

If you’re on the hunt for a new name for your baby girl or baby boy, here are boy and girl names
that are still super fresh in 2020.
