Topping the list for boys are Liam in first place, followed by Noah and Mateo.
For the girls, Olivia was most popular, followed by Camila and Emma.
Julian and Luna are new popular names that made it to the list this year.
The list also puts together boys and girls names that are uncommon but still popular in the state of Texas versus the rest of the country. For boys, this includes names such as Guadalupe, Adolfo and Raul. And for girls, Margarita, Guadalupe and Leticia.
