Most popular baby names in the United States have Latin roots, but we tapped baby-naming experts Pamela Redmond of Nameberry and Sherri Suzanne, founder of My Name for Life, about the hottest up-and-coming Spanish baby names!

在美国,最受欢迎的婴儿名字都有拉丁词根,我们请来了Nameberry网站的婴儿命名专家帕梅拉·雷德蒙及My Name for Life的创始人雪莉·苏珊娜,来讨论最热门的西班牙宝宝名字!

Julieta. Suzanne says, "Parents in the 21st century have rediscovered Juliet and Juliette, and so it was only natural that the Spanish version Julieta would arrive next."

胡丽叶塔。苏珊娜说,“21世纪的父母们都再次发掘了朱丽叶一名,因此西班牙版的胡丽叶塔的到来也是顺其自然。”

The rising popularity could be due to the success of American-born Mexican singer Julieta Venegas, or it could be a nod to the most recent movie from Spain's acclaimed filmmaker, Pedro Almodóvar, Julieta.

这种人气的上升可能是由于美国出生的墨西哥歌手胡丽叶塔·凡内加丝的成功,也可能是对西班牙著名导演佩德罗·阿莫多瓦的《胡丽叶塔》的认可。

Camila. Matthew McConaughey's Brazilian-born model-wife Camila Alves helped popularize the Spanish/Portuguese version of Camilla, bringing it to number 43 on the most-popular list, Redmond says.

卡米拉。雷德蒙说:“ 马修·麦康纳的巴西裔模特妻子卡米拉·阿尔维斯助推了西班牙、葡萄牙版的卡米拉一名,使其在最受欢迎的榜单上排名第43位。”

This was also the name of a huntress in Roman mythology who allegedly had the speed and agility to run over a field without bending a single blade of grass.

这也是罗马神话中一个女猎人的名字,据说她速度极快、身手敏捷,跑过田野而不压弯一片草叶。

Isabella. Although Isabella has dropped from its number one spot, it's still the 5th most popular baby girl name in the United States, Redmond says.

伊莎贝拉。雷德蒙说,虽然伊莎贝拉的名次已经跌出第一名,但它仍然是美国第五大最受欢迎的女婴名字。

And while pop culture buffs might associate the name with a fictional vampire-loving teen girl who goes by "Bella," history buffs know the Spanish roots of the name date back to Queen Isabella of Spain.

流行文化爱好者可能会把这个名字和那个虚构的、被吸血鬼爱上的“贝拉”联系在一起,但历史爱好者都知道,这个名字的根源可以追溯到西班牙的伊莎贝拉女王。

If you don't want a Bella who befriends creatures of the night, consider giving a nickname nod to strong female characters like Izzie Stevens of Grey's Anatomy.

如果你不想让成为贝拉成为夜间生物的朋友,不妨考虑下给《实习医生格蕾》中的强势女性斯蒂文斯取个昵称。

Belén. A traditional Spanish name that's been on the rise since 2000, it's the name of Spanish pro golfer, Belén Mozo.

贝伦。自从2000年以来,这个传统的西班牙名一直在上升,也是职业高尔夫球选手贝伦·莫左之名。

It's also the name that Scandal and Desperate Housewives actor, Ricardo Chavira, chose for his daughter.

这也是《丑闻》和《绝望主妇》男主角利卡多·查维拉为女儿取的名字。

Belén is also the Spanish name for the city of Bethlehem, a city with no small amount of Biblical importance.

贝伦是伯利恒城市的西班牙名字,因为是耶稣基督的出生地,所以在圣经中的重要性不容小觑。

Aitana. Named for a beautiful place in Spain, Aitana is the highest mountain summit in the Province of Alicante.

艾塔娜。艾塔娜是以西班牙一个美丽的地方命名的,它是阿利坎特省最高的山峰。

It gained popularity probably because of Spanish actress Aitana Sanchez-Gijón and Mexican actor Eugenio Derbez' daughter, who also has the name.

之所以流行可能是因为西班牙女演员艾塔娜·桑切斯·希洪及墨西哥男演员欧赫尼奥·德尔维斯的女儿。

Máximo. Máximo, which means "the greatest," is the Spanish form of the Ancient Roman name Maximus, Suzanne says.

马克西莫。苏珊娜说,Máximo意指“最伟大的”,是古罗马名字Maximus的西班牙语形式。

But Máximo is now making a surge. With a strong nickname like Max, tennis fans will love knowing that their baby is aligned with Argentina's Máximo Gonzalez.

现在马克西莫一名不断激增。有个像马克斯一样的昵称,网球迷们都会因孩子与阿根廷的马克西莫·冈萨雷斯同名而感到欣喜。

Leandro. Leandro is a Spanish form of the name Leander, a character in Greek mythology.

莱安德罗。Leandro是Leander的西班牙语形式,是希腊神话中的人物。

The name actually translates to "lion-man" and lends itself to the nickname Leo, Suzanne says — a strong, and beautifully romantic Spanish option for August babies.

苏珊娜说,这个名字实际上翻译过来是“狮子人”,并被称为“莱昂”,对于八月出生的宝宝而言,这是一个强大而浪漫的西班牙语名字。

Valentín. Speaking of romance, Valentín is another Spanish name now trending due to celebrities, like Dancing with the Stars' dance pro Valentin "Val" Chmerkovskiy.

瓦伦丁。浪漫的代名词,瓦伦丁西班牙语的形式,常与当下的名人联系在一起,比如《与星共舞》中的专业舞星瓦伦丁·奇梅尔科夫西基。

Although Val the dancer is Ukrainian-American, the name Valentín is the Spanish form of the Ancient Roman name Valentinus.

虽然舞星瓦伦丁是乌克兰裔美国人,但Valentín这个名字是古罗马名字Valentinus的西班牙形式。

Suzanne says, "Here in America, Valentino is being used steadily but quietly, and Valentín, which is hovering just inside the Top 1000, is on the rise again."

苏珊娜说:“在美国,瓦伦蒂诺正在被稳步地、悄无声息地使用着,而一直徘徊在前1000名之内的瓦伦丁也在上升。”

Actress Ali Landry and her husband loved the name so much, they chose it for their youngest son.

女演员阿丽·兰德里和她的丈夫非常喜欢这个名字,为他们最小的儿子也选择了这个名字。

A name is everything.

名字仿佛是一切。

Although these names might seem exotic in the U.S., Spanish is the most widely-spoken of all the Romance languages throughout the world, so consider these gorgeous names when dubbing your little bundle of joy!

虽然这些名字在美国看起来颇具异国情调,但西班牙语是全世界所有罗曼斯语言中使用最广泛的,所以在给你的小宝贝起名时,不妨考虑一下这些华丽的名字吧!
