A familiar pair tops Arizona's 2025 list: Olivia, with 353 babies, and Liam, with 437, are the state's most popular names.
Among girls, Olivia holds first, but the ground shifts right behind her. Sophia climbed two places to second with 315 babies, Mia rose three to third, and Eliana made the biggest leap in the top ten, jumping ten spots to eighth with 242. Emma, meanwhile, slid four places to sixth, and Sofia sits just behind Camila at tenth.
The boys' race is tighter at the top than the girls': Liam's 437 is only a few babies ahead of Noah's 434, with Mateo close behind at 419. Santiago nudged up a spot to fourth, and Elias was the strongest riser in the top ten, gaining five places to sixth with 294.
Read together, the two lists lean classic and soft — Olivia, Amelia, Charlotte and Emma on one side, Liam, Noah, Oliver and Theodore on the other — with plenty of vowel-rich favorites like Mia, Sofia, Mateo and Santiago mixed in. Biblical picks such as Elijah and Ezra keep company with surname-style choices, giving Arizona parents a list that feels both steady and quietly modern.
