The data from the Social Security Administration is in, and Noah and Sophia reign as the most popular baby names of 2013. To note, Sophia has been sitting at the top of the pedestal on the girls’ side since 2011, and Noah dethroned Jacob, which has been #1 on the boys’ side since 1999.

The rest of the Top 10 lineup follows below (and the top 1000 list is here!). And, honestly, we’re getting a little obsessed with this government site, where you can enter any baby name and see how it ranks in history.

We’re curious…does the popularity of a name turn you on or off, when it comes to naming your own child?
