These are the most popular baby names in Delaware

If you attend a wedding in Delaware in about 26 years, do not be the least bit surprised if the bride is named Charlotte and the groom is named Noah.

Among the bridal court, there very likely may be a Liam and a Carter, an Isabella and Emma.

These are among the most popular baby names of all for infants born in Delaware in 2023.

The Department of Social Security released its annual list of Most Popular Baby Names, searchable by year and state, on May 18.

If you want your baby to have an unusual name, rather than be awash in a sea of Benjamins and Olivias, the database, built from Social Security card applications submitted by new parents, is a valuable resource.
