Boy and girl names that will be trending over the next decade
Experts have already predicted the top 10 boy and girl names that will be leading the charts over the next decade.
Writers at Nameberry have revealed the most popular monikers of 2028 and they’re not as futuristic or uncommon as you might think, with several classic names taking the top spot.
Charlotte will take out the number one spot as the most popular girl's name of the decade, after scoring the top spot this year – no doubt thanks to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge choosing this name for their only daughter.
Experts analysed social security data to come up with the list. Here is a full list of the top 10 girl names for 2028.

"Names that get popular fast, usually thanks to a celebrity or a pop culture event, tend to fall just as fast. Beyonce, used for 105 baby girls in 2008, was used for no baby girls last year," says CEO of Nameberry, Pam Satran.
For boys, experts reveal that Liam will take the top spot, followed by Mateo, Maverick, Noah and Lincoln.
