The past two years have been hard on many of us but the trends for 2022 are incorporating hope and style for our little ones. Here are some names you'll be seeing in the year to come.

- Betty
- Mae
- Constance

- Etta
- Frank

- Bali
- Forest
- Palmer

No matter what name you choose, we hope 2022 sees a happy and healthy year for you and your family.
