No Pressure But Your Baby’s Name Could Impact How Rich They Become

These are the baby names that earn the most money, so choose wisely - by Chelsea Tromans
  • 13 Jan 2020

Choosing a name for your baby is stressful. It needs to capture their personality (which is impossible to predict when they’re just a few hours old!) and you need to love it for life. 

Watch Below: Unusually Popular Baby Names With Millennial Parents

In case that wasn’t enough pressure, research has found that statistically there are certain names that earn more money than others - so you also need to think long and hard about their financial future when picking out a name.

UK company Ask Traders analysed over 300 CEOs from some of the world’s largest companies, including Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Rolls Royce and Amazon, and compared the names with Adzuna’s salary data to find out which names earn the most money. They also took into account baby name trends for 2020.

When it comes to financial success, a few names came out on top.

Most successful girls names of 2020

Billie – AUD$77,000 (approximate average annual salary)

Eve – $75,000

Austin – $75,000

Ariana – $55,500

Ivy – $43,000

Most successful boys names of 2020

Logan – $85,500 (approximate average annual salary)

Eric – $84,000

Freddie – $83,000

Arthur – $76,500

Tommy – $66,500

Most successful gender neutral names of 2020

Jude – $75,000 (approximate average annual salary)

Max – $70,000

Ellis – $56,500

Rowan – $56,500

Evelyn – $56,000

Good to know: The above salary figures are based on UK salary figures. The UK’s average annual salary is around £29,000 (AUD$54,700) while the average wage in Australia in 2018 was just over $62,000 a year.
