2018 Baby Names

Curious to know what other parents in your area are naming their babies? I’ve compiled a list of all the babies I photographed in 2018; hopefully it might serve as some inspiration for you as you are deciding what to name yours!

One of the first questions I ask when a mom or dad has emailed me to let me know that baby girl or boy has arrived is, “What is her name?” I love hearing the names of the babies that will be gracing my studio. This past year, the baby names ranged from the stunningly classic to surprising and unique.

In 2016 I put together a list of the names of babies I had photographed and had meant to do the same for 2017. Alas, 2017 has passed, but here I am with a fresh list for you of all the baby names I saw come through my studio in 2018!

There were three names that I had two of each. Those more popular names were Jack, Henry, and Eleanor. The classics still live! Okay, so without further ado…here they are!

Then there are the two sets of twins I photographed in 2018: Brooklyn + Henry and Cole + Edward.
