The Social Security Administration has released a list of the latest frequently used baby names in the US.  Currently, Emma and Liam are the most popular for 2020. Luna tops the list for baby girls in the UK.  Luna was the name of the Roman Moon Goddess.  The most popular girl’s name in the world right now is Sophia!

Apollo, Birdie, Bear and Zelda are trending for baby names in Italy, and Cian and Roisin are peaking in Ireland.  A sobriquet is a descriptive name given to someone because of a physical trait such as Red, red hair or Peanut because of diminutive size. Food oriented names are also gaining popularity worldwide such as Cinnamon, Dijon, Kale, and Benedict. Of course, if you don’t like your name, it’s not that difficult to change it.  What’s a word for the fear of change?  Kainotophobia.
