The Top 20 Lists Of Names For 2021 – As Chosen By You!

We print thousands of names onto our name labels every year. This year, we printed over 9,000! Throughout the year, we use some of our blog posts to take a look at some of the themes and inspirations behind a small selection of these names. To kick things off, though, we like to find out which names were the most popular in the last year.

So, without further ado, we present our Top Names for 2021 – as chosen by you, our customers. Have your favourite names made our list this year?

Top Ways To Personalise Stikins ® Name Labels

We offer a choice of 1 or 2 lines of text and each line can hold up to 22 characters (we recommend a maximum of 18). After that, how you personalise your name labels is up to you!

We tend to recommend that customers keep two things in mind when choosing their personalisation – font size and usefulness.

Our system counts your characters (including spaces!) and automatically selects the largest font size that allows your personalisation to fit onto your name labels. This means that the more text you add, the smaller the font size on your name labels. So, if you want a larger font, keep things short and sweet!

You also need to think about where your name labels will be used and by whom. In closed environments (like schools, homes, and offices), the owner of an item may be identified by their name only. If items are to travel further afield, you might want to consider adding a bit of contact information. We recommending adding a phone number but you could include a (short) email address as an alternative.

It’s also worth thinking about nicknames – especially, if the owner is more commonly known by a nickname than their actual name!

Here are the top 10 ways that our customers choose to personalise their name labels:

First Name + Surname
Phone Number

Class / Year
