Baby girls names that are on the decline

If you’re looking for a less common name that your little one won’t need to share with several others in the classroom, there’s a selection of names on the decline that could fit the bill for your little lady.

Once popular names Amy and Jasmine have dropped more than 30 places each and are no longer close to being in the top 100. Other outsiders that don’t make the top 100 most popular names include Eden, Ariana, Harley, Autumn, Skyla and Elise.
