The Most Popular Baby Names In Quebec Were Just Revealed And These Are The Worst Ones
Retraite Québec has just released the list of the most popular baby names in Quebec for 2018, and it seems the latest generation of children will be sporting some pretty unusual monikers.
For the most part, the most popular names are pretty normal, with Emma taking first place for girls and William for boys. This is the fourth consecutive year that the names have come out on top for Quebec-born babies.
A new favourite on the list of girls' names is Charlie, in fifth place. For boys, an up-and-coming name we'll be seeing more often is Edouard, now in ninth place.
After that, the names seem to become more and more... unique.
