When it comes to choosing a baby name, sometimes there are too many options. Families who are looking for Hispanic girl names, for example, are spoiled for choice. For starters, all they have to do is look at the Social Security Administration (SSA) and its list of the most popular girl names in the United States right now—so many of the top names are already of Spanish origin. Or, they could check similar lists from Spanish-speaking countries from around the world. Then again, some families might not want a trendy name and are looking for those unique, under-the-radar Hispanic girl names. No matter the preference, here are 150 beautiful Hispanic girl names to try on for size.

Popular Hispanic Girl Names in the United States

The SSA keeps track of the 1,000 most popular baby names every year. When the numbers were tallied for last year, these were the names of Spanish or Latin origin that made the list, shown here in order from most popular to least popular.

  1. Olivia
  2. Isabella
  3. Eliana
  4. Ava
  5. Aurora
  6. Camila
  7. Nora
  8. Lucy
  9. Luna
  10. Emily
  11. Valentina
  12. Elena
  13. Emilia
  14. Nova
  15. Victoria

For an interesting comparison, the SSA also keeps a separate list of the most-popular names in Puerto Rico. They may not be of Spanish or Latin origin, but the top 10 names are:

  1. Aurora
  2. Valentina
  3. Mia
  4. Emma
  5. Catalina
  6. Isabella
  7. Amira
  8. Milena
  9. Amelia
  10. Ainara

There are a bunch of overlaps (Aurora, Mia, Isabella), but also some that are specific to Puerto Rico (Catalina, Amira, Milena)—all beautiful!

Trendy Hispanic Girl Names
