Oklahoma’s most popular baby names for 2011
Taken from item published March 18, 2012 by The Tulsa World
“Thank you.” From Mikeal Murray
If you were a boy born in Oklahoma in 2011, there’s a good chance that you were given the name William or Mason or Jacob.
If a girl, people likely call you Emma, Sophia or Isabella.
These were the three most popular names by gender given to newborns in the state last year, according to data released by the Oklahoma Department of Health.
The Social Security Administration has not yet released the most popular baby names on a national basis for 2011.
But in comparing Oklahoma’s 2011 names to those from the 2010 national list, the state was not very original.
Eight of the top 10 Oklahoma girls’ names were also in the national top 10, with the differences being that Oklahoma counted Addison (No. 5) and Brooklyn (No. 9) among the most popular, while the national list featured Chloe at No. 9 (No. 11 in Oklahoma) and Mia at No. 10 (not among the state’s top 20 girls’ names).
As for the boys, six names
were duplicated between the state and national lists. Oklahoma was unique in counting Mason, Elijah, James and Wyatt among its top 10 in popularity.
Meanwhile, the U.S. top 10 names included two names - Jayden and Alexander - that finished in the state’s top 20 (No. 13 and No. 14, respectively) and two names - Daniel and Anthony - that were not among the most in-demand monikers in Oklahoma.
Perhaps reflecting Oklahoma’s more rural themes, names that proved popular across the state included Hunter (No. 15 boy’s name), Lily (No. 16 girl’s name) and two names popular on the gender-neutral list: River and Briar.
Oklahoma children were bestowed with 7,517 unique girls’ names and 5,255 unique boys’ names in 2011, according to state Department of Health statistics.
Top 20 girl’s names
1. Emma; 2. Sophia; 3. Isabella; 4. Olivia; 5. Addison; 6. Ava; 7. Emily; 8. Abigail; 9. Brooklyn; 10. Madison; 11. Chloe; 12. Avery; 13. Elizabeth;
Even with the occasional hiccup that sometimes still happens, problems are still able to be addressed and corrected much faster than they would be using paper.
I sincerely hope that my efforts have been helpful. I have appreciated your patience, your professionalism, and your company. It’s been challenging, it’s been gratifying, and it’s been fun! Thank you all very much.
I want to say “thank you” to everyone I’ve worked with over the past six years in the vital records industry. That’s a lot of people and includes birth clerks, health information managers, other state agencies, the Health Department, other states, all kinds of folks.
I have taken a new position within the agency that will move me out of the Vital Records Division. I am very excited by
the opportunity, but also feel the “buyer’s remorse” that accompanies leaving people and work behind. It hasn’t always been easy during this “ROVER thing,” particularly in the very beginning when we rolled it out in April of 2009. But ROVER has come a long way since that rocky start and has made a huge impact on birth certificate registration. It continues to get better with each new update.
