Most popular baby names for girls in Arkansas

Stacker compiled a list of the most popular baby names for girls in Arkansas using data from the Social Security Administration. Names are ranked by the number of babies born in Arkansas in 2021.

Olivia is currently the most popular girl name in the United States while Emma, Charlotte, Amelia, and Ava round out the top five.
