I Wanted to see if you're currently expecting or have a newborn at home? If so, congrats! 

And let’s be real, being a new parent is tough but it's also one of the best things ever! Am I right? Personally, ever since I went through my own journey of feeling super overwhelmed with the sleep struggles of my babies, I made it my mission to help as many parents out as possible. This is why I run Sleep and the City. 

Here, I share lots of free resources and on Instagram @sleepandthecity , too!

One of the most popular things I give away is a free custom sleep schedule for your baby.

So, if you're on the lookout for the perfect name for your little one… I hope you enjoyed reading this list of top baby names for 2023. 

It can be a ton of fun coming up with ideas, but it can also be a little overwhelming, too. 

My advice, try not to stress too much about it - just go with what feels right in your gut. After all, your baby's name is something that will be with them forever, so it's important that it feels authentic and meaningful to you. 

Good luck, and have fun with it!
