The Social Security Administration keeps track of EVERYTHING and sometimes, their meticulous record keeping can make for some interesting lists. Every year, they release the most popular baby names and they can even break this down by geographic area-- so I wondered-- what are the most popular baby names in Idaho?

Some of these may surprise you, but none of the names are TOTALLY crazy.  I'm a little upset there's no Mateo on the list. Maybe next year.

Top for boys, was Oliver. Top for girls, was Emma. I have only known one of each of those names in my entire life-- so maybe these names on are the rise now!

Below is the entire top five list for both boys and girls. Would you ever name your child any of these names? One of my best friends was a Mason!
