Amelia leads Kentucky's 2025 girls list with 212 babies, followed by Charlotte at 187.
Sophia climbed nine places to third with 166 births, and Evelyn rose seven to fourth at 164. Lainey stays near the top, and the upper ranks mix long-standing classics with softer nature picks such as Eleanor, Willow and Ivy.
Ailany made the year's biggest leap, rising 196 places to No. 52, while Scottie jumped 166 spots to No. 67. Vintage-sounding revivals — Violet, Clara, Lydia, Eloise — and surname-style unisex choices like Parker, Sutton, Remi and Charlie are scattered throughout the list.
Lyla slid 41 places and Ember 36, the steepest drops on the list. The rest of the ranking leans on soft -lynn and -lee sounds like Oaklynn, Wrenley and Brynlee, alongside short, tidy picks such as Ava, Ella, Zoe and Ruby.
