Presidential Children's Names
Many presidents
have inspired baby name trends. For example, the name Malia
suddenly became way more popular after President Obama was in
office. Other presidents have reversed trends (e.g., the
popularity of the names Chelsea and Hillary tanked when
President Clinton was in office). Here is a list of all the kids
of presidents and vice presidents throughout the years.
Presidential Fun Facts: The most popular girls' names among
presidents and vice-presidents are: Mary, followed by Martha,
then Elizabeth, then Catherine (multi spellings)/Lucy/Sarah
(tied). For boys: John, followed by James, then Robert, then
