Taylor Swift has had a profound impact on baby name popularity through the years.
For example, the name Evermore was given to less than five babies in 2019 — the year before her “Evermore” album was released — but has been given to 41 babies in the five years since.
Some fans today are even using her relationship with Travis Kelce as inspiration.
On July 25, Kansas City couple Haley Richardson and Robert Dillon gave birth to their daughter named Kelce Taylor to honor Dillon’s favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs, and their tight end, Travis Kelce.
Names that mean “Christmas,” like Noel, Natalie, Natalia and Noelle can also be linked to Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift was raised on a Christmas tree farm in West Reading, Pennsylvania, before her parents — Andrea Swift and Scott Kingsley Swift — moved to Nashville to support her music career.
