Pampers Picks for 2023: Top 20 Baby Boy Names for 2023

If you’re looking for an awesome boy name that’s modern and fresh, it's worth checking out what’s popular and trendy in 2023. While you wait for the SSA to publish its yearly list of top boy names, we’ve scoured the trends and come up with our own predictions for the most popular baby boy names of 2023. In 2023, baby boy name trends may mix vintage and classic boy names with modern and unique. You’ll want to look for classic monikers that have a trendy yet traditional edge, such as the following:1. Austin. Combine a trendy city name with an ancient origin. Austin, Texas, is one of the hippest cities in the United States, but the name also has a deeper meaning, as it comes from the Roman name Augustinus. Because this name derives from Augustus, Austin means “exalted.”2. Benjamin. The name Benjamin is of Hebrew origin and means “son of the right hand.” It has been in the top 100 names for boys in the United States since 1963 and we doubt it’s going away anytime soon.3. Daniel. Consider another Hebrew boys’ name that hasn’t left the top 100 list in the United States for longer than we can remember. Daniel has a strong and classic sound to it and is one of the top boy names starting with D. 4. Eden. Eden might strike you as being only a girls’ name, but it’s actually been a gender-neutral option for a long time. In the United States, it’s getting a boost as a romantic boys’ name. Eden is Hebrew and means “pleasure, delight.”5. Elias. You’ll find this nice boys’ name in numerous languages and cultures. It’s a slightly cooler form of the Hebrew name Elijah, which means “my God is Yahweh,” as Yahweh is the Hebrew God. 6. Ethan. We predict Ethan will continue to be popular in 2023 due to its strong meaning of “solid” and “enduring” and its modern sound. And, of course, its association with famous actors and directors such as Ethan Hawke and Ethan Coen.7. Gabriel. Another Hebrew name, Gabriel is making a modern comeback as a polished moniker with a singsong sound. It means “God is my strong man.”8. Henry. The name Henry is of Germanic origin and means “ruler of the household.” It has been a popular name for boys for centuries and has a classic, regal air. We predict it will remain popular in 2023 due to its association with popular cultural figures, such as Henry Cavill and Prince Harry, as well as its vintage charm.9. Jackson. Meaning “son of Jack”—perfect if your little one is literally the son of Jack—Jackson has been gaining a lot of traction this century and its cool vibes are sure to continue that rise to the top.10. James. This classic name that has been popular for centuries (it has never left the top 20 in the United States) and has a strong, timeless feel to it. It's a versatile choice that would work well with a variety of middle names for boys.11. John. You can’t beat this truly classic one-syllable name for boys’. Meaning “God is gracious,” John has been around for a long time and we predict it’s going to stick around for even longer.12. Levi. In English, Levi is pronounced LEE-vie, though other languages might pronounce it more like LEV-vee. It’s another hip yet old name, a Hebrew moniker meaning “joined, attached.” 13. Liam. The name Liam is of Irish origin and means “resolute protector.” It’s a fun and stylish short form of William, so it’s no wonder it has been a popular choice for several years. Plus it has many famous namesakes, such as actors Liam Hemsworth and Liam Neeson.14. Maverick. Give your little boy a strong and cool name with Maverick, a word that means “independent.” The name actually comes from a 19th-century Texas rancher who decided to do things a little differently and not brand his calves. You might also recognize it from a character in the movie Top Gun. 15. Noah. Yes, another Hebrew name tops this list. There’s something so appealing about the historic origins and the hip sounds of these monikers. Noah means “rest, repose.”16. Oliver. Meaning “olive tree” in Latin, Oliver has vintage charm and the additional bonus of the cute nickname Ollie.17. Ronan. There seems to be a point when an old-fashioned name becomes hip, and the time is now for the moniker Ronan. It’s currently soaring in popularity in the United States, so it’s sure to be used a lot in 2023. Ronan is a Breton name from Old Irish and has the adorable meaning of “little seal.”18. Remi. This sweet French name had its popularity moment in 2007 thanks to the movie Ratatouille and soon became almost as trendy for girls. Remi, pronounced REH-MEE, means “rower.”19. Sebastian. We think that 2023 is the year to give this old-fashioned name a trendy, modern moment. You can make it even cooler with the nickname Seb. From a Latin name, Sebastian means “from Sebaste,” which was once a place in modern day Turkey.20. Wren. Sharing their name with a songbird, your little Wren will surely be music to your ears! This name has always been unisex in the United Kingdom and 2023 is the year for it to follow suit in the United States.
