Parents in Dublin can't get enough of these names

Does anyone else feel like baby boy names are harder to choose compared to girl names?

The list of potential baby girl names I have is forever growing but the list of boy names remains the same as the years go by.

But that shouldn't be the case when there are so many wonderful boy names out there.

Some of our favourite baby boy names made it to the top of the CSO's 2023 baby name report and we're not one bit surprised to see these monikers grow in popularity.

Some names never seem to go out of style and the latest report from the CSO has proven that.

According to the CSO, there are three baby names proving incredibly popular with parents of baby boys in Dublin.

Parents in Dublin just can't get enough of short and traditional names for their baby boys.

The top three names for boys in Dublin in 2023 were Jack, James, and Noah.

The meaning behind these beautiful names are one of the reasons they're so beloved.

Jack

The name Jack is of English origin and means 'God is gracious'.

James

The name James is of Hebrew origin. The charming moniker means 'gift from God.'

Noah

This beautiful name is also of Hebrew origin. It means both 'rest' and 'motion'.

Did any of your favourite boy names make the list?
