The Rise of -Lani

I previously joked about "-lani" being the new "-lee", but they really do seem to be taking off.

(image using the Expert NameVoyager, because I do not have that much computing power)

Difference is, -lani names stick somewhat close to their (mostly) Hawaiian roots, while -lee names are all over the place, both in origin and novelty.

To start with, here are all the -lani names used in the US last year, from most --> least common (alternate spellings were combined, but only the most common spelling is listed):

• Leilani (≈3200 babies)
• Kehlani
• Alani
• Kailani (≈1000 babies)
• Kalani
• Milani
• Meilani (≈500 babies)
• Nalani
• Malani
• Ailani
• Jaylani
• Kelani
• Elani
• Lailani
• Jalani
• Noelani
• Aylani
• Naylani
• Lani (≈100 babies)
• Mylani
• Daylani
• Aulani
• Keylani
• Lelani
• Nylani
• Jelani
• Nilani
• Xolani
• Dalani
• Ulani (≈25 babies)
• Dailany
• Mahealani
• Kaiulani
• Aolani
• Kahealani
• Mulani
• Zaylani
• Dylani
• Leelani
• Nolani
• Healani
• Mialani
• Raelani
• Taylani
• Mililani
• Talani
• Yulani
• Yeilani
• Jolani
• Nialani
• Nohealani
• Kealani
• Kealohilani
• Lulani
• Yalani
• Olani
• Zalani
• Halani
• Kamalani
• Kehaulani
• Lealani
• Lokelani
• Solani
• Yolani
• Julani (5 babies)
• Lolani

In all, approximately 66 different names, comprising about 0.7% of girls.
Obviously most are spinoffs of recognizable Hawaiian names [where lani means "sky, heavens"], but others are completely new to me! So, naturally, I had to go looking things up.
It is, of course, entirely possible that many parents did not have these names in mind, but simply "made up" names they didn't know already existed :p

• Ailani--baby-name sites are pretty certain this is Hawaiian meaning "high chief", but I can't find a reliable primary source. It does seem to be an Indian (Singhi?) surname, though.
• Alani (ah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--any tree from the Melicope genus, or the related orange tree/fruit
• Aolani (ah-oh-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly cloud", "heavenly dawn", "heavenly realm"
• Aulani (ah-oo-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly traveller"
• Halani (hah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly breath"
• Healani (heh-ah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly mist"
• Jelani (jel-AH-nee, English)--poss. from Arabic, "of Gilan"
• Kahealani (kah-heh-ah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"the heavenly mist", "the heavenly name"
• Kailani (kah-ee-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly sea", "sky and sea"
• Kaiulani (kye-oo-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"the heavenly sacred one"
• Kalani (kah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"the heavens"
• Kamalani (kah-mah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly child"
• Kealani (keh-ah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly white", "clear sky"
• Kealohilani (keh-ah-lo-hee-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"the heavenly splendor"
• Kehaulani (keh-hah-oo-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly dew"
• Keilani (keh-ee-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly glory"
• Leilani (leh-ee-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly lei", [figuratively] "heavenly child"
• Lokelani (loh-keh-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly rose"
• Mahealani (mah-heh-ah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly haze, heavenly moonlight"
• Milani (mee-lah-nee, Italian [surname])--"from Milan"
• Mililani (mee-lee-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly caress"
• Nalani (nah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"the heavens"
• Noelani (noh-eh-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly mist"
• Nohealani (noh-heh-ah-lah-nee, Hawaiian)--"heavenly beauty"
• Xolani (Zulu)--prob. "peace". Soooo.....in Zulu, X represents the lateral click [you can listen to it here], and I assume it's being Anglicized or Hispanicized (or just flat-out mispronounced) in the US, but have no idea how!  I was previously imagining it as "shoh-lah-nee" (prob. because of names like Xochitl and Xulia), but if anyone has any insight, I'd love to hear it.
  [also, while Xolani appears to be only masculine in Zulu, in the US it was more popular for girls last year]

Obviously, this is nowhere near a complete list of -lani names, both Hawaiian and otherwise, merely the ones that showed up on the SSA lists last year. :)
Interestingly, although in Hawaiian most names are unisex, the only -lani names that showed up for boys were Alani, Xolani, and the various spellings of Jelani and Kalani. 

Rare but Real (2018)

Now that I've finished the main part of the statistics-manipulation, time to have fun looking for rare names. :)
Here are the names that appear on the very bottom of the SSA lists, given to only 5 babies (of that gender) last year.
As usual, none of these names will have alternate spellings that appear elsewhere on the lists, nor have they appeared on previous 'Rare but Real's. [2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010]

% Changes, 2018

Rankings show how name change popularity relative to each other; if you want to see how much names have changed in actual usage, you have to use statistics, I'm afraid. :p
Here are the names that gained the most usage last year (by % of babies):

Girls:

1. Mila, +0.12% (0.32% --> 0.44%)
2. Luna, +0.09% (0.28% --> 0.37%)
3. Nova, +0.06% (0.16% --> 0.22%)
4. Everly, +0.05% (0.19% --> 0.23%)
5. Camila, +0.04% (0.36% --> 0.4%)
6. Everleigh, +0.04% (0.04% --> 0.08%)
7. Amelia, +0.04% (0.63% --> 0.67%)
8. Emersyn, +0.03% (0.07% --> 0.1%)
9. Isla, +0.03% (0.15% --> 0.18%)
10. Amaya, +0.03% (0.09% --> 0.12%)
11. Ivy, +0.03% (0.15% --> 0.18%)

18. Lia, +0.02% (0.05% --> 0.07%)
19. Aria, +0.02% (0.38% --> 0.4%)
20. Ember, +0.02% (0.06% --> 0.08%)

So, Mila went from being given to about 1 in every 300 girls to about 1 in every 250 (which corresponds from her jump from #30 to #14). 

Boys:

1. Liam, +0.07% (0.95% --> 1.03%)
2. Theodore, +0.06% (0.3% --> 0.36%)

19. Miles, +0.02% (0.18% --> 0.21%)
20. Henry, +0.02% (0.53% --> 0.55%)

Percentage gain favors more popular names, but if you want to see how the less common names are gaining in usage, percentage ratios are the easiest way:

Girls:

1. Zhavia (≈310.77x)
2. Roselyne (88.36x)
3. Aruna (6.38x)
4. Kailany (5.97x)

17. Stori (2x)
18. Esmae (1.96x)

17. Cyril (2.18x)
18. Caelum (2.16x)
19. Genesis (2.13x)
20. Parth (2.1x)

Most of the these names are still pretty unheard-of, though (Atreus, the most common boys' name from these lists, was given to 159 boys in 2018).
Here are the names that gained the most usage in the Top 500:

Girls:

1. Everleigh (1.96x)
2. Aitana (1.69x)

19. Mylo, +378 (#1529 --> #1151)
20. Zakari, +373 (#1529 --> #1156)

Kylian continues its rise from last year. Gadiel & Elio = <3

19. Milo, +46 (#224 --> #178)
20. Theo, +46 (#289 --> #243)

Memphis also appears on the girls' list; I wonder what's given it a boost. Mathias and Matthias, yay! Love Gael, too.

Ranking Jumps, 2018 (girls)

I'm going to shake things up and do the girls first this year. :p

First up, here are the names that climbed the most from 2018's Top 2500:

1. Zhavia, +≈15000+ (unranked --> #875)

19. Berklee, +1084 (#2732 --> #1648)
20. Eliette, +1066 (#3167 --> #2101)

I'd guess we have Zhavia Ward to thank for this year's fastest-rising name! Love Ainhoa, Dua, and Nuri. It it just me, or is there a lot of "oo" on this list? Wonder if that'll continue into the the more familiar names as well.....

Here are the highest-jumpers from the Top 1500 and up:

1. Zhavia, +≈15000+ (unranked --> #875)
2. Ainhoa, +1385 (#2445 --> #1060)
3. Alaiya, +1339 (#2474 --> #1135)
4. Havana, +1230 (#2553 --> #1323)

6. Meghan, +697 (#1400 --> #703)
7. Dara, +671 (#1840 --> #1169)

11. Dior, +558 (#1349 --> #791)
12. Maple, +554 (#2034 --> #1480)
13. Memphis, +523 (#2021 --> #1498)
14. Theodora, +520 (#1916 --> #1396)

19. Kaisley, +424 (#1496 --> #1072)
20. Eliyanah, +415 (#1762 --> #1347)

Oo, Theodora! Dara! Birdie! Memphis is a surprise (I'm guessing it's after the city, not the nymph, though).

Now, for the names to really keep an eye on next year, the fastest-rising names from the Top 500:

1. Aitana, +236 (#686 --> #450)
2. Kailani, +231 (#620 --> #389)
3. Everleigh, +191 (#387 --> #196)

18. Ember, +80 (#289 --> #209)
19. Ariyah, +80 (#428 --> #348)

Aidens Gonna Aid (2018)

So, um; it's May? Yikes. No better way to get back into this than the annual SSA lists, though; am I right?

Usual disclaimer: there are imported names that look like -aidens, but aren't properly pronounced as -aidens (Adán, Raiden, Nayden, and probably others). However, I have no way of knowing which pronunciation was intended, and chances are some parents are using them as -aidens anyway.
