Here's a lowdown on the baby naming trends in Schleswig-Holstein and Germany as a whole, drawing from the analysis by Gesellschaft für deutsche Sprache (GfdS) for the year 2024.

In the north, it's a split for the girls as Emilia and Ida share the top spot for baby names, whilst Noah holds the lead for the boys. Interestingly, this contrasts with the overall trend of the country, where Sophia and Noah remain at the pinnacle of popularity.

The GfdS, a renowned society, has been publishing an annual list of the most common given names in Germany since 1977. They gather data from approximately 750 local registration offices, which provided the society with nearly 900,000 entries. As a result, almost 92% of all baby names given in Germany in 2024 have been recorded, the GfdS announced.

However, specific rankings for cities like Wiesbaden or Schleswig-Holstein were not detailed in the publicly available data. But remember, Wiesbaden is placed in the state of Hesse, and not Schleswig-Holstein, so data for Wiesbaden would naturally fall under the Hesse regional statistics.

In Saxony, for instance, Mia and Emil were the top picks in 2024, suggesting regional variations across Germany. As of now, GfdS has not released a separate list by city or federal state for 2024. If you're curious about regional-specific data for Schleswig-Holstein or Wiesbaden, you might need to check regional registry offices or patiently wait for GfdS to release more granular regional breakdowns.

Emilia, Ida, Emil, Ella, and Frieda are some preferred names for girls, while Henry and Ella enjoyed favor among boys, aside from Noah and Sophia's continued rule in Germany.

  1. In Schleswig-Holstein, both Emilia and Ida are competing for the top spot in baby girl names, while Noah leads in boy names.
  2. Despite Schleswig-Holstein's diverse trends, nationally, Sophia remains the most popular name for girls, and Noah holds the lead for boys.
  3. Data for Wiesbaden, while located in a different region (Hesse), may provide insights into the baby naming trends in that area since it's not part of the Schleswig-Holstein regional statistics.
  4. The GfdS revealed that regional variations in baby name trends can be observed in different states across Germany, necessitating the need for more granular regional breakdowns or checking with specific regional registry offices for detailed, Schleswig-Holstein or Wiesbaden-specific data.
