Michael is no longer the most popular boys name in New York, after 52 years at the top of the popularity list.
According to the Health Department’s annual list from birth certificates issued in 2007, Daniel has usurped Michael as the most popular boys baby name.
The top two girls names have been revealed as Isabella and Sophia.
Ashley was the most popular name among Hispanic families, while Madison took the top spot for black families, Sarah for white families and Sophia for Asian families.
Moving to boys, Jayden was the most popular named for both black and Hispanic families, while Michael retained first place for white families and Ryan was the most popular name for Asian families.
On the rarer side, we learn that Unique and Miracle are two of the least popular names with just 10 occurances, and Achilles, Phoenix, Orion and Wolf bring up the rear for the boys.
