Emma
Emma has been the top name in the United States for four years, according to the Social Security database. It's for a good reason — not only does the name mean "universal" in German, but it's a timeless moniker, with its popularity spanning all the way back to Jane Austen's era. Plus, with celebrities like Emma Stone, Emma Thompson, and Emma Watson to look up to, why wouldn't you want to name your own star after one?
