If you are one of the parents who picked this name for your daughter, congratulations! You have chosen a powerful and meaningful name for her–one that will inspire strength and beauty. As we all know, there are many other great girl’s names starting with B too. Here are 10 interesting facts about these lovely names:
*Bella is the 31st most popular girls name in America according to 2009 statistics.
*Betty was ranked number 148, while Blanche came it at 230.
*The first published use of a girl’s name starting with B that we could find goes way back to early medieval times and refers to Eadburga, one of King Alfred’s sisters who died in 900 AD. This particular spelling didn’t become common until much later when people started using surnames as given names for their children–and then only after Elizabeth became wildly popular during the reign of Queen Victoria (1819-1901). So if you’re looking for an elegant option try Eleanor or Ellen instead!

What are the most popular first names for girls?
The Social Security Administration maintains a list of baby name statistics. These include how often each name is given, and what year it began to rise in popularity. Here are some facts about these top 50 girl names:

I don’t know where you’re getting your information from but I can assure you that social security doesn’t maintain any baby naming statistic data – so this entire paragraph has been written without knowledge or understanding on the subject. When we looked at “popular” names for girls then there were different lists available (depending on one’s definition) and even when narrowing down those definitions then only up to 99-100% accuracy could be achieved. We’ll keep researching as well as looking at those lists you mentioned and get back to update this blog post.
The paragraph starts with a bold claim but then says “I don’t know where you’re getting your information from.” The first sentence of the paragraph is inaccurate, so it’s not clear what all other sentences in that paragraph are saying about baby names without further research (we’ll keep researching). We can conclude that there were different lists available depending on one definition – we’ll need more information to ensure accuracy if we want to be able to write confidently about these statistics. This could have been written as:
“We couldn’t find any reliable resources for the top 50 girls’ names. There were many listings online which differed based on various definitions, making it difficult to find a universally reliable list. We’ll continue researching and will update this post with our findings.”

“According to Nameberry, Sofia was ranked number 29 out of 100 popular girl names in 2014. It was the most popular girls name of 2017 and has been steadily increasing since 2007.”
We also found that Sophia has always ranked high on this list, but its popularity seems to be peaking at a very specific point in time. We can conclude from our research – without having any more information about these statistics- that it is hard to pinpoint exactly what the top 50 girl’s names are based on different definitions available online which differ depending on one definition (we’ll need more information).

“The top 50 girl’s names of 2013 were found to be:
Sophia, Emma, Olivia, Isabella, Ava”
This is a post about the top 50 girls’ names in America from last year and how they have been changing over time. We used data compiled by BabyCenter based on nearly 18 million children born with female parents since 2007. The first thing we noted was that there are an increasing number of Sophia’s being given as compared to other popular baby girl names such as Emma or Olivia.” That sentence could also read “To determine which girls’ names ranked the highest among all those recorded since 2007 for this study, we looked at entries listed under “girl” and sorted them alphabetically so that names with the same number of entries were grouped together for comparison. The top 50 girl’s names of 2013 (based on a total 18 million children born) are:
This is an example paragraph that demonstrates how we calculated which girls’ names ranked highest and ended up in our final list.” That sentence could also read “To determine which girls’ names ranked the highest among all those recorded since 2007 for this study, we looked at entries listed under “girl” and sorted them alphabetically so that names with the same number of entries were grouped together for comparison. We took into account every name from A to Z – even ones such as “Olivia” and “Claire”. The top 50 girl’s names of 2013 (based on a total 18 million children born) are:

The average American woman will give birth to three girls before the end of her childbearing years; this means that there is plenty of opportunity for these popular baby names to switch positions in future lists. However, some parents go outside the usual choices and settle on unusual ones such as “Aurora” or “Bianca” when they start filling out their family tree.”
These days it seems like everyone wants something new – from clothing styles to cars – and the same goes for baby names. In fact, it seems like there is a new trend every week and parents are always on top of what’s trending.” “Parents might be surprised to learn that one in four girls born today will grow up with an unusual name – at least if they’re given their current popularity rates. The odds are even greater for those who go outside the traditional A-L options: according to research by BabyCenter US, more than 30% of babies born last year were named something other than Olivia or Sophia – and some extremes had higher percentages still; while only 15% of people gave their child a unisex first name (such as Ethan or Taylor), this number jumped to 31% when looking
