Leia
Leia leaped 100 spots on the charts to #321, and is a princess name for these times. Star Wars names are very hot at the moment, with names Kylo and Rey/Rae surging after the release of new installment, Force Awakens (Kylo jumped 2,368 spots last year, the biggest change of any boy's name!)
Levine says animation and video games have a major influence on names right now, which could speak to the resonance of a sci-fi property like Star Wars. Perhaps after the tragic 2016 death of actress Carrie Fisher, who played Princess Leia in the original films, more new parents will want to honor her by naming their kids after the badass space traveler that she portrayed.
