In Berlin, the most popular first name for boys in 2022 was Mohammed – replacing Noah, who slipped to second place. Adam landed in third place. This becomes clear from a list of the most common first names published by the Society for the German Language (GfdS) in Wiesbaden on Monday.
Sophia was the most popular girl in Berlin, followed by Emilia and Emma. Across Germany, Noah and Emilia led the list.
The lists are based on data from more than 750 registry offices, which, according to the GfdS, had transmitted almost one million name entries. (dpa)
