Your 2022 name
It's time to figure out our new names!
Look up here (https://www.ssa.gov/oact/babynames/ -> Popular Names by Birth Year) where your first and middle names ranked the year you were born and find the name that ranked the same in 2022 to come up with your new name. For example, my name is Emma Johanna and I was born in 1992. In 1992 Emma was ranked 104th and Johanna 391st, so my new name would be Maeve Destiny. My new masculine name would be Gael Sage (Raymond Beau in 1992).
If you can't find your name, you can try another spelling or variant. Please share your thoughts about your new name.

I find Maeve cute, but a bit too trendy for my taste: I would pair it with other middle name than Destiny. Gael and Sage are individually fine names, but together they're too minimalistic to me.

There were 10 babies born in the country with my exact name and fewer than 150 with the most popular variant, so too few to rank without more work on my part to count the rank than I have energy for. This year I went by picking from the names given to 10 babies in 2022 and went with Elani, since my parents had been thinking about the name Elana for me when they were discussing names. For a masculine name, Eliav has the same first initial and is a similar style as my name. My middle name is my mother's last name, so that wouldn't change.
Funnily enough, a variant of my name that seems particularly weird to me was given to 10 babies in 2022. In a way, that is the most accurate 2022 name for me, but my parents never would have spelled it that way. My dad really thought he was picking the most obvious spelling for me. He was wrong, but he also incorrectly though he invented my name.

My middle name didn’t make the top 1000.
From my name’s spot in my birth year, I would be Mateo in 2022. I think this name is cool, but it wouldn’t suit me (at all); it also sounds bad with my surname.
For a girl, the name next to my spot is Elizabeth; in 2022, that would be Harper. I could probably pull that off, and I think it’s fairly nice. However, it is incredibly common.

Not from the US but I got Isla and Gabriel.
I like both of yours.
Mine would be Emilia Hana / Emilia Baylor. Or Anthony Gatlin / Anthony Kira.
(My MN is unisex, so Kira / Baylor are where it was ranked for the opposite gender.)
I don't really like them, but Emilia and Anthony are ok and vaguely the same style as my name.
Gatlin seems weird/random. Does anyone know why that'd be charting?

I find Maeve Destiny to be quite eye catching. I like Sage on a girl.
Mine would be Lyric Natalie. It doesn’t appeal to me. My masculine name would be Alijah Miles. Alijah is horrendous - I actually thought I was looking at the girls’ list by accident (I love Elijah though). Miles is ok. Elijah Miles I could live with.

A little too full of a's for my taste.
guy name: Josiah Micah. I like them fine individually, but not together.

My new feminine name would be Stella Nina, which is almost ludicrously Italian (and I'm mainly of Italian-American heritage). And my new masculine name would be Maverick Otto, which is basically a hipster cowboy and I kind of love it.

(Note: My real name is Edith Anna)
As a girl, my name would be Nellie Violet.
I like both of them.
Violet is the one a prefer, sound pretty.
Nellie is ok, prefer Nell however.

My name was not on the popularity list in the USA the year I was born, so I decided to do it with another country where my name made it to the list. I used Belgium's popularity list for this.
My name ranked 57 the year I was born, so in 2021 (the latest year provided) I would be named Laura.
The name is nice, classic and pretty but not one of my favourites.

Oh dear! As a boy, I'd be Colton Cooper, and as a girl, wait for it, Kennedy Luna. I'll stick with what I've got, thankyouverymuch!
