Minnesota's top baby names of 2025

Seeing a lot of baby Eleanors lately? A century after peaking in popularity, the name has now cracked the top 5 in Minnesota.

That's according to new, 2025 state-level baby name data from the Social Security Administration.

👶 Zoom in: The top girl's name in Minnesota was Charlotte for the fourth straight year, followed by Evelyn, Violet, Eleanor and Nora.

• For boys, Theodore jumped from third to first, followed by Henry, Oliver, Liam and Noah.

💭 Nick's thought bubble: I'm glad to see Nicholas make the top 100 for the first time since 2013. But does this mean my name is now retro?

• Audrey pointed out that her first name (No. 77) and last name (Kennedy, No. 86) both cracked the top 100 for girls in Minnesota.
