The Social Security Administration released its annual list of the most popular baby names in the United States today. While the #1 spot for little princesses remained the same for a 3rd straight year, the top slot for boys featured a change of Biblical proportions.

The top names for boys are:

1. Noah
2. Liam
3. Jacob
4. Mason
5. William
6. Ethan
7. Michael
8. Alexander
9. Jayden
10. Daniel

The top names for girls are:

1. Sophia
2. Emma
3. Olivia
4. Isabella
5. Ava
6. Mia
7. Emily
8. Abigail
9. Madison
10. Elizabeth

Liam as a riser to #2 also made waves on the boy’s side after coming in at 10 the previous year.
