In addition to each state’s top baby names (and names for U.S. territories), Social Security’s website has a list of the 1,000 most popular boys’ and girls’ names for 2025 and the fastest rising girls’ and boys’ names.
Most parents apply for their child’s Social Security number (SSN) at birth, during their hospital stay.
Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano encourages families to take this vital step in ensuring valuable protection for any benefits their children may be eligible for in the future.
