Choosing a name for your child is one of the most important decisions you'll make when you have a baby.

Whatever moniker you pick will be one that your kid will have to live with for the rest of their lives (unless they decide to change it, of course), so most parents will put in a lot of effort to make sure they're making the right choice.

Moms and dads often look to their family members, books, TV shows, films, and even nature for inspiration.

However, even with the rise in popularity of modern baby names (looking at you Kardashians), it seems like parents across the country still like to stick to the classics.

Names like Noah, Emma, William, and Olivia are still ranked at the top in the country, according to Social Security Online. Although there are a few surprises, it seems like parents in most states like to play it safe when naming their children.
