Surname-as-First Names Outside the 2024 SSA Top 50 Bennett, Walker, and Paisley are surname-style names that still rank in 2024 — just not in the top 50. Last-name-as-first-name is a crowding band.
Soft-Consonant Boy Names in the 2024 SSA Top 100 Fifty-six of the 2024 boy top 100 start with a vowel or with L, M, N, R, W, V, or Y. Liam, Noah, and Luca are the crowded version of that texture.
