Have you heard the names London, Grady, or McKinley in a while?

They're on a new list of baby names that have fallen out of favor.

Babycenter says in 2026 names inspired by places like Dallas are out.

The same goes for boy names ending in 'y,’ according to the study.

Unique spellings for traditional names are also no longer trendy.

Topping their list for most popular names are Noah, Liam, and Oliver for boys, and Olivia, Amelia, and Sophie for girls.
