Hundreds of thousands of babies are born each day, and although each is wonderfully unique, many share a common name.

America’s recent favorite baby girl names included Sophia, Emma, and Isabella. Italians were drawn to a similar top pick - Sofia - but also loved Giula and Martina. Aussies adored names like Charlotte, Ruby, and Lilly. Indians named their baby girls Saanvi, Angel, and Pari.

Internationally popular girl names included Sophia, Olivia, Ava, Emma or Emily, and Mia. If you’re looking for an unusual baby name - at least in North America - why not consider Esra?
