Nova/Luna
Two other space-related names that are jumping the charts are Nova and Luna. Nova made it into the top 200 girl's names after a 78-spot jump last year, and Luna jumped 33 spots to #77. A nova is a type of star, and luna is the Spanish word for moon.

While the moon has - obviously - been around for quite some time, like millions of years, it's having a pop culture moment right now. You can pay $120 for a zodiac sweatshirt from Khloe Kardashian's line, read your lyrical horoscope from the Astro Poets (currently at 210K followers), and name all your children after objects you might find floating in outer space.
