Name Circle

Choose your baby’s name together

Name Circle helps parents narrow down baby names with input from the people they love, through three simple rounds of voting. Parents’ votes count most, and each parent gets a veto.

How it works

Round 1

Pick your top 10

Everyone browses real U.S. baby-name data, from this year’s favorites to rare finds, and ranks their top 10.

Round 2

Pick your top 5

The family’s favorites, shown with your last name and a middle name, plus how unique each one is. Everyone picks a top 5.

Round 3

Make your final choice

The top 5 are the finalists. Everyone picks one, each parent can veto a name, and Name Circle reveals the name with the most support.
