March Madness Baby Names 2018: Girls Quarter Finals

March 10, 2018 By appellationmountain 1 Comment

March Madness baby names 2018: Girls Quarter FinalsMarch Madness baby names 2018 continues with the girls’ quarter finals!

The opening round brought a few surprises. And, of course, a couple of perpetual disappointments. Why is Elodie always a bridesmaid, but never a bride? The name makes it to March Madness nearly every year, but has yet to win.

I think I might be able to guess the winner from this week’s result – but, to be honest, every year surprises me.

Time to review the results from the opening round!

March Madness 2018: Opening Round Results

  • Anouk, an intriguing form of Anne, swept past Beyonce baby name Rumi, 52% to 48%.
  • Sabine handily defeated Phryne, 85% to 15%.
  • Botanical Marigold scored 52% of the vote, leaving Elodie with just 48% – and perpetual runner-up status.
  • In the battle of the night sky and the silver screen, Leia garnered 58% to Vesper’s 42%.
  • Eliza won the zippy-z showdown with 69% of the tally, against Zosia’s 31%.
  • Literary Esme’s 59% put this rising favorite into the next round, instead of tailored Sloane, with just 41%.
  • Sweetly, vintage Maisie earned a solid 59% to leave behind the similar Faye, at a mere 41%.
  • In the second-biggest triumph of the week, Elowen bested Noa, 72% to 28%.

Let’s see which names continue to advance towards the trophy. Ready, set, vote!
