Mayo Clinic Health System — Austin has revealed the top baby names of 2020.

Grayson was the top boy’s name, as well as the top name chosen overall, by parents who delivered at Mayo in Austin this year. Grayson edged out Axel and Mateo as the top boy’s names. Liam was the overall top name chosen for boys in 2019.

 Everly was once again the top girl’s name. Everly was tied with six other names ― Olivia, Camila, Isabella, Aria, Reagan and Joanna ― for the top spot in 2019.

 The Family Birth Center in Austin was also busier, compared to the rest of Mayo Clinic Health System. The newly remodeled floor, which allows families to remain in the same location for triage, labor, delivery and postpartum care, had the third most deliveries among all Mayo Clinic Health System locations.

 Construction will be complete in the Family Birth Center in early 2021. The final product will include 10 delivery rooms, an expanded family waiting area and easy access from the same elevators that patients use for the nine months prior to delivery.

 Grayson is 15th boys names chosen nationwide, while Everly is listed 65th overall for girls, according to BabyNames.com.
