Stikins' Favourite Fifty List Of Names For 2022

This year, we’re doing things a bit differently. Instead of top 20 names for boys and for girls, we’ve decided to celebrate your favourite 50 names. Read on to find out if your favourite names have made the list!

Your Favourite Fifty Names Of 2022

We like to start each year by finding out which names we printed most in the last twelve months. Usually we publish top 20 lists of names for girls and for boys. This year, we thought we'd do things differently. So, we’ve mushed our two lists together (and included a few extras) to create our Favourite 50 Names Of 2022.

Have your favourite names made it onto our list this year?

Personalise Your Name Labels To Suit Every Sort Of Name

You can personalise your name labels however you like – according to three basic rules:

• You can choose one or two lines of text.
• Each line can contain a maximum of 18 characters (including spaces).
• You can only use alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9) and standard punctuation from the English alphabet / keyboard.

We have a few top tips to get the perfect personalisation.

Our system chooses a font size based on the number of characters you use. MORE CHARACTERS means a SMALLER FONT.

If you need 12 characters or fewer, the one line layout uses a bigger font. If you need more than 12 characters, we recommend the two line layout.

If you are requesting longer names, especially double barrelled names, use initials to lower your character count. For example, “Longestshire-Bigginsbatch” requires 25 characters and won’t fit. You could enter “H-B”, “Longestshire-B”, or “L-Bigginsbatch” instead of the full name.

If someone is better known by a nickname, you can include that name as well as or instead of a given birth name.

If you want to create a set of name labels to share, try one of the following options:

• Use a family or group name (e.g. “Surname Family”, “Team Surname”, or “Surname Twins”).
• Enter both names (e.g. “Name 1 & Name 2” on line one and “Surname” on line two).
• Enter an initial and a surname (e.g. “A Surname”)
• Enter one name on the top line and one name on the bottom line and cut your name labels in half.
