American baby names come from a range of sources as diverse as the U.S. itself, including American place names, hero names, and invented names.

The most popular American baby names include Savannah for girls and Jayden for boys. Along with Savannah and Jayden, other American names ranking in the US Top 100 include Brooklyn, Kennedy, Jace, Maverick, Sawyer, Serenity, and Lincoln. Some popular American baby names carry a strong American image, such as Liberty or Lincoln. Native American names such as Tallulah and Dakota certainly are in the mix.

Names of American places, such as Sierra and Brooklyn, qualify as American names, as do names created in the US and rarely used anywhere else, from Beyonce to Blue. Names with an American image may also be names inspired by American heroes like Lebron and Kennedy or names that evidence American ideals, from Indie to Apple. Here are some American names with the most distinctly all-American image, ordered by their current popularity on Nameberry.
