What was matched
Kanji and kana reading must both match a reviewed name record. Reading-only examples are excluded from these two tables.
What this is not
July 2026 is the refresh month, not the babies' birth month. The source is a commercial survey sample, not a census or a live nationwide trend.
Boys: top reviewed exact matches
