Here are the most popular baby names of the decade

If you have a young child in school, chances are they have an Emma, Sophia, Noah or Liam in their class.

The top baby names of the decade have been released by the Social Security Administration — with Emma and Noah topping the list.

The tally is based on the 200 most popular given names for male and female babies born during the years 2010 through 2018, which is the most recent year calculated. The most popular baby names of 2019 in the U.S. will be released in May 2020.
