Top Baby Names in Norway 2023

The most popular baby names in Norway for 2023 are Olivia and Lucas.

Along with Olivia, other top girl names in Norway include Emma, Ella, Leah, and Sofie. Along with Lucas, other popular names for boys in Norway include Noah, Isak, Oliver, and Kasper.

Norway's name rankings combine spellings for names that sound the same. So, for example, Lucas also includes boys named Lukas.

The letter C was not introduced into the Norwegian alphabet until later, so relatively few names in Norway’s Top 50 include it — only Lucas and Victor. Instead, many names in which you’d traditionally see a C are spelled with a K instead, such as Isak, Oskar, and Kasper.

Popular Scandinavian names in Norway include Ingrid, Hedda, and Tuva for girls, and Olav, Gustav, and Håkon for boys. Other Norwegian names with crossover potential include Linnea, Sigrid, Emil, and Iver.
