It turns out that it's not just teenagers that love One Direction....mom's love them too! And it turns out it's Liam that's most popular with new mother's as he helps his name become the #4 most popular baby name, according to BabyCenter. His name has been on a exponential rise the past few years and got a big boost this year.
It's not just Liam that's helping his name become more popular, it turns out mom's are loving Harry Styles because the popularity of his name increased 57% this year!
Now of course they aren't the only famous guys with those names The Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth and British royal Prince Harry are also probably contributing to the popularity of their names.

One Direction isn't the only pop-culture phenomenon leading the way in baby name trends, it turns out mom's also love names from the popular book, Fifty Shades of Grey. The name Anastasia is up 10%, and the name Grey boosting 20% since last year. Wait...people are naming their kids Grey? Alrighty then. But if you're curious, here's the top baby names of 2012: The top ten girls names for 2012 are Sophia, Emma, Olivia, Isabella, Ava, Lily, Zoe, Chloe, Mia and Madison. The top ten boys names for 2012 are Aiden, Jackson, Ethan, Liam, Mason, Noah, Lucas, Jacob, Jayden and Jack. |
So anyway, if you’ve got a new baby brother named Liam, Harry, Niall, Zayn or Louis (or maybe even Grey), we’ve got a pretty good idea where it might have come from!
Would you name your kid after a celebrity or a pop-culture phenomenon?
