This once-popular baby girl’s name is falling in popularity in Ireland

This was one of the most popular baby girl names in the 1990s

Names that would've been the top names of the 1990s are now on the verge of falling out of the top 100, and some are even at risk of becoming extinct.

One name that would've been a top choice for parents in the 1990s and 2000s is now falling in popularity in Ireland.

This is due to a rise in shorter monikers and three-letter baby names like Mia, Fia, and Eve.

One name that was certainly on the roll in every class in Ireland was Lauren, but the name is now proving to be extremely unpopular.

According to the CSO, only 34 babies were given the name Lauren in 2024.

The name is dwindling in popularity so much that it has fallen out of the top 100 baby girl names.

They shared, "In 2024, Lauren was ranked 135th of all baby girls recorded in Ireland. In total, 34 baby girls were recorded with the name Lauren in this year."

The name Lauren is of Latin origin and comes from the Latin name Laurentius.

The charming name means 'laurel leaves', 'wisdom', and 'victory'.

We may see the name make a comeback one day, but more modern names are the top choices in Ireland.
