In 2022, baby names ending in “S” or starting with the letter “R” dominated parenting trends, along with short names. For next year, however, the American site nameberry predicts a marked change in household tastes.
From the analysis of the specialists, the portal concluded that 2023 looks set to be a year filled with microtrends in baby name registrations🇧🇷 That is, regional fads will suddenly appear and disappear soon after.

1. Maximalism
Extravagance and opulence dominate the maximalist aesthetic, which will win the hearts of parents next year. They are names united by strong sounds, seriousness and a “safe” energy. Furthermore, the origin can derive from myths, legends and splendid stories, as in the case of Penelope and Selene.

OR nameberry already says: “the future is golden”. That’s because with everything will come names that are luxurious, enlightened, and quite optimistic. Within this category are included nomenclatures that refer directly to gold, to light and even to the Sun: Aurora, Clara, Apollo…
4. Interculturalism
Ana and Leo are instantly recognizable names spoken in many different languages. They are an example of the trend of cross-cultural options, i.e. those that fit perfectly between different languages, but are not tied to any one in particular.
To enter the fashion, parents can still use the formula “4-2-I”: Add four letters, two syllables and end in I, like Lori, Gigi, Yuki, Leni and Ravi.
5. Adjectives

In Brazil we have Clara, Bárbara and Serena for girls. Already in the United States the names Lovely, Luck and Celestial are excellent candidates.
6. “Granny” names for girls
Still within retro fashion, this is a slightly bolder path between families Рand perfect for honoring ancestors! If there are grandmothers Adelina, Am̩lia, Carmina, Elisa or Joana in the lineage, this is the perfect opportunity to join the bandwagon!
7. Blue and green
Experts note that many of the names we see in vogue now are taken from nature. and even refer to the beautiful blue and green colors. This is the case of Cyan, Emeralda, Lazuly and Indigo. Moreover, they still bring the feeling of tranquility and renewal in the family.
8. Name mixing and matching
