MEDICINE HAT, AB – You will run into a fair share of Olivias, Emmas, Sophias, Noahs, Liams and Jacks for the next couple of decades in Alberta.
You may also run into a Bear in the heart of the city, Mars on Earth’s soil, and meet Summer in the middle of winter, and vice versa.
The Government Alberta released details on Thursday, February 16, 2023, of the names chosen for babies born in the province in 2022. Olivia was the most popular name for baby girls for the tenth straight year, with 192 babies who share than name.
