VR – The Social Security Administration today announced the most popular baby names in Virginia for 2024. Liam and Charlotte topped the list.

The top five boys’ and girls’ names for 2024 in Virginia were:

Boys:            Girls:
1) Liam          1) Charlotte
2) Noah         2) Olivia
3) James       3) Sophia
4) William      4) Emma
5) Oliver        5) Amelia

See the list at www.ssa.gov/oact/babynames/

The agency announced last week that Olivia and Liam were the most popular baby names in the U.S. How does Virginia compare to the rest of the country? Check out Social Security’s website, www.ssa.gov/oact/babynames/, to see the top national baby names for 2024 and see where your name ranks now and over the past 100 years.

Social Security began compiling the baby names list in 1997, with names dating back to 1880. Each year, the list reveals the effect of pop-culture on naming trends. In addition to each state’s top baby names (and names for U.S. territories), Social Security’s website has a list of the 1,000 most popular boys’ and girls’ names for 2024 and the fastest rising girls’ and boys’ names.

Most parents apply for their child’s Social Security number (SSN) at birth, during their hospital stay. Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano encourages families to take this vital step in ensuring valuable protection for any benefits their children may be eligible for in the future.

An SSN is needed to claim a child as a dependent for income tax purposes or to open a bank account in the child’s name and buy savings bonds. More information on getting a child’s Social Security number and card is provided in Social Security Numbers for Children.

Social Security encourages everyone to enjoy the baby names list and, while online, see what else you can do at www.ssa.gov.
