Since most people get a social security card at birth, the SSA is one of the best sources for measuring a name’s popularity.

The top three baby names for both boys and girls remained unchanged from 2017, and many of the same names made the top 10 lists again.

New for the boys is Lucas, while Jacob got knocked out of the top 10. New for the girls is Harper, knocking out Abigail.
