     How are the top baby girl names chosen

     The top baby girl names are chosen based on data collected by the Social Security Administration (SSA). These rankings are compiled from baby name reports submitted by parents to the SSA every year.

     Choosing a name for your daughter can be an exciting and stressful process, especially since it’s often one of the first decisions you make as a parent. There are many factors that go into deciding on a name, including incorporating special meaning or honoring a family or cultural tradition.

     Popularity is also an important consideration, and a name that has been around for a long time is often a good choice. Some classic names, like Jennifer and Jessica, have been incredibly popular for decades.

     Another name that has been popular for generations is Victoria. It was originally a popular name for girls in the 19th century, but it has seen a big jump in popularity this century.

     Parents are opting to name their daughters after strong women in history, a trend that’s been spotted by BabyCenter. Names that pay tribute to strong women, such as Kamala and Ruth, are seeing huge growth in popularity.
