*”Fiona” is a name that goes back to ancient times when it was first used as an anglicization of “Phiona.” The Irish Gaelic word means “White,” which may have been chosen because it sounds similar to Maeve or Megan, another common Irish girl’s name meaning “Pearl”. Fiona has risen dramatically in popularity over recent years–even surpassing Isabella–in some regions of Scotland and Ireland. It comes from Scottish Gaelic, meaning “White.”
*”Nora” is a unisex version of the French word for “light.” Nora was originally used as a man’s name and it means “bright one”. It has been in use since medieval times when it was popularized by author Jules Verne–he named his most famous female character after this name and protagonist. The nickname form of Nora is Nori which can be shortened to Nory or just Rory!

As 2019 progresses, we will be keeping our eye on the most popular German girl names for 2022.
One of the hottest trends in Germany is naming children after their grandparent or other member of family who has passed away. The number one spot for this trend comes from a name that means “the father’s joy.” It’s likely to stay strong and rank highly as long as there are families with at least two daughters born within three years of each other since it would mean they might have lost someone close by blood ties during those years (a parent, sibling).
In 2018 there were also many well-known Germans who died: Friedrich Schiller, Walter Ulbricht, Franz Beckenbauer, Ludwig Erhard. So there is a lot of new room for girls names that are linked to them as well: Schillerin – named after Friedrich von Schiller; Ulbrichtin – either Walter Ulbricht or his daughter Angela (who took over in the GDR); Beckenbauerin- Franz Beckenbauer’s wife Ilona and their two daughters Monika and Alexandra; Erhardsche – referring back directly to Ludwig Erhard himself.
The most popular German girl name was Sophie at 25 per 100 female newborns with the following runner up being Marie at 24%. The top five also includes Emma, Hanna, Anna/Annabelle and Luisa respectively.
Most Popular Names With Predictions for 2022:
Emma – 49%
Mia – 47%
Marie/Mareike – 44%
Anna/Annabelle- 43.50%. The alternative ending “e” is preferred in the Eastern part of Germany and Austria, while Anna with its original spelling is more popular in Western regions. So it can be seen as a regional distinction. In North America there are two distinct versions on the list (with Marie at 46%), but they both share 40%. Luisa was predicted to make an appearance on this list too because she has been climbing steadily over the past 25 years from barely being heard of before 1995 or so to 33 per 100 female newborns now! This name might be one to watch in the future, or just an interesting name to know if you are curious about all of these names.
Annie is also a top contender because it has been trending upwards since 1992 and now stands at 31%. As with Emma/Emmae, this could be due to popular influencers like actress Annette Bening (spouse of Oscar-winning actor Warren Beatty) who were born as Ann(i)s but go by Annie. How would that phenomenon differ from what happened with Hanna? Well, unlike Hanna which was predicted not to make an appearance on our list for 2022 based on its 25% popularity rate over the past year, there’s still time for Annie!
Allie – 30%
Alma – 33%
Ava – 29%
Emma/Emmae – 34% (based on predictions for 2021)
Amelia – 27%
Annie 31%
Audrey- 30%. You can find all of these names in the baby name charts at babynametracker.com, and you’ll see that they are all close to one another with only a handful of points separating them which means there’s still time for some changes!
