Why do American kids have first names like Paisley, Kennedy, and Presley?
A popular American baby-name trend uses old family names or place names as first names. The kids in this clip include Paisley, Kennedy, Presley, Sadie, Lily, and Navy. Many of these names started as last names or places (Kennedy is a famous American family, Presley is associated with Elvis Presley, Paisley is a fabric pattern from Scotland).
The trend grew strong in the 2010s and continues today. Many American parents pick the names because they sound modern, soft, and a bit unusual. You hear them often in the South and the Midwest. This clip shows a family of fifteen kids, and the trend shows up across many of the names.
