Ever wonder what names are rocking in Oz? Look no further than the most popular Australian girl names. These beauties mirror our own U.S. charts in many ways but also feature monikers much rarer stateside. Let’s dig in!
The top 10 most popular Australian girl names are pretty similar to those in the USA. Charlotte is the reigning queen down under, and we’re not too surprised as she’s also quite popular here. Next up are Olivia and Amelia, two classic cuties that also appear in the U.S. top 10. Our first new find is Isla, a Scottish sweetheart meaning “island.” With her soft sound and unique vowel start, we’re surprised she isn’t more common stateside. Two familiar faces appear next: Mia and Ava. are next up, as these petite powerhouses continue to shine far and wide. Rounding out the top 10 Australian girl names are Grace, Willow, Harper, and Chloe.
Down under, you’ll find many classics like the royal-linked Elizabeth and Victoria. You likely recognize Audrey, too, an Old Hollywood beauty meaning “noble strength.” The vintage Eleanor is making major strides with Aussie parents, much like she is here, while the Hebrew gem Abigail continues to wow in Oz. See Madeline and Annabelle for more common classics in Australia.
Many popular girl names in Australia aren’t as common here. Matilda is a classic example of this. Meaning “might in battle,” this strong name has a soft sound and heaps of adorable nickname options, including Mattie and Tillie. Florence and Harriet share this nickname-rich style and are just as well-loved down under. Aussies also adore Zara, an English stunner derived from Zahrah. She’s another moniker we’re surprised isn’t catching on with more American parents, as her sound is as beautiful as her meaning of “blooming flower.” Check out Imogen, Bonnie, and Poppy for more common Australian girl names that aren’t as popular in the U.S.
You’ll notice that girl names popular in Australia tend to have a lighter “nickname” feel to them. This youthful spirit makes them feel fun and upbeat. Evie is a beloved beaut. Often used as a nickname for Evelyn, Evangeline, and Everly, she means “life.” Ellie and Elsie also share this style and are super close in sound and appearance. They’re both shortened forms of Elizabeth, and both names flow nicely with most last names. Other popular picks with this style are Lucy, Billie, and Millie.
