I think it's always interesting to hear of the latest "trends" or way of life based on living in different parts of the world. Having said this, I'm curious to know these days what are some commonly used baby names in your country and where do you live? Here in Canada a few popular baby girl names include: Emma, Emily, Alexis. As for baby boys a few names include: Jacob, Jack and Cole.

I'm surprised to hear "Earl" as a popular name these days, I know a lot of the older generation have this name but I don't know of any babies by that name. This is why I find discussions like this so interesting, shows how things are so different based on where you live.

Popular girl names are Sukriti, Aakriti, Sukanya, Sumridhi, Prakriti.
And for boys - Ansh, Manav, Devansh etc.

Hi,
There are thousands of name given to babies in India. In India there are many states and they have different languages. But I know some names which are pet names like pinky, bunty, raju, sonu, monu and so on.

It's nice that in your culture you choose names with such great meaning. Here in Canada I don't think people generally look into the meaning of the name, they more so just choose a name that they like the sound of or some will look at the baby name popularity and choose based on that also.
