The Top Foodie Baby Names for Your Future Chef

Foodie families take note! The list of the most popular food and drink baby names is here and goes all the way back to 2000. If you’re ready to gain some sweet inspiration for a future child, these names prove there are never too many Olives or Clementines to go around.

Exante examined name trends for kids born in the U.S. and the U.K. to compile a report on Foodie Baby Names. The research found that more baby girls (76,893) were named after food and drink than boys (16,533). The top name for both boys and girls? Sage (16,219 girls and 7,953 boys). And the full top 10:

  1. Sage
  2. Olive
  3. Rosemary
  4. Juniper
  5. Brandy
  6. Kale
  7. Clementine
  8. Honey
  9. Margarita
  10. Saffron

If you’re looking for something a little more unique, Exante also reported on some obscure choices. The most unusual names included Ice, Merlot, Chilli, Mocha, Barley and Plum. Will those names age like a fine wine? Too soon to tell!
