Popular Boy Names in Nevada

Liam leads Nevada's 2025 list of popular boys' names with 205 babies, ahead of Mateo (184) and Noah (176).

Below that trio, the list leans on Spanish-language favorites and biblical classics at once: Santiago sits at No. 4 with 138 babies, with Sebastian, Elijah, Ezekiel and Asher all nearby. There's a strong showing of short, punchy picks like Leo, Kai and Ace, plus surname-style choices such as Hudson, Carter and Cooper.

The biggest climbers are further down the table, where Eithan jumped 128 places to No. 86, Aziel rose 53 and Josiah moved up 49 into the top 20. Dean, Bennett and Angel also made noticeable gains, giving the bottom half of the list a very different look from a year ago.

Caleb took the hardest fall, dropping 46 spots to No. 92, while William slipped 30 places and Aiden 29. Even so, each of them still drew dozens of Nevada babies in 2025, so a slide in rank says more about crowding at the top than about any name losing its footing.
