What do you all think is the most common first name for females and for males? What do you all think is the most common last name?

Emma and Jacob are apparently the most common names in the US.

I think Smith might be the most common last name in the US.

most common name for male - boy/man
most common name for female - girl/woman

i thought it was John Smith and jane Smith.....

Unfortunately, I didn't go to a very diverse school. 89% of the student body was white, rich, preppy people.

same here...most of the population has a mexican history....like there is ruiz,martinez,rodriguez,delgado,we're all from mexicans here except for a few...who are somewhat persecuted for being white or black unless you're good at sports...but this describes the scum of my school...mostly we can all get past the heritage ad stuff.....we're pretty modern ....

At my school in my year the name Sophie, there are 8 and there is only 40 girls in my year! That's age 14-15.

But the most common names for children (2-3) are Ava and Ella for girls and Leo and Nate for boys. Out of the ones I know anyway. But according to recent studies:
