Top 100 Boy Names in Ohio, 2025

Henry climbs to fourth with 543 babies, and Jack jumps three places into the top ten, where long-standing classics like William and James share space with surname-style favorites Hudson and Lincoln. Shorter, punchier picks such as Leo, Luca and Beau are scattered through the middle of the list.

Further down, the biggest movers lean vintage and surname-inspired: Dean leaps 64 places to 90th and Callum 63 to a tie at 77th, with Atlas, Jeremiah, Jayden and Jude also climbing. Many of these risers pair old-fashioned sounds with modern, last-name feel.

A few established names give ground this year — Colton slides 22 spots and Ezekiel 20, while Robert, Christopher and Miles also fall back. Even so, the overall shape of the list stays familiar, with sturdy classics and surname picks filling most of the top half.
