Twi-attack! Jacob and Isabella top baby names in the US

By on May 11, 2010 at 4:26 am

It’s Jake and Bells over and over again. The vampire-human-werewolf romance just got cuter as the US’ Social Security Administration lists Isabella and Jacob as 2009’s most popular baby names.

Both names just happen to belong to lead characters in Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight series. While Jacob remains atop the boys' list for the 11th year in a row, Isabella toppled Emma and it is said that more than 22,000 parents graced their newborn daughters with that name last year.

The last name of Meyer's sexy vampire, Cullen, jumped 297 spots in one year and is now the 485th most popular first name for a baby boy.

What's in a name you say!
