NEW YORK—New Yorkers’ top favorite names for newborns remained pretty much the same in 2011, according to data released Wednesday, with Jayden and Isabella remaining the most favored names.

More than 800 Jaydens and more than 600 Isabellas entered the world in New York City last year.

The top 10 names for girls had only one difference from 2010: Sarah was replaced by Sofia. Two new names, Aiden and Alexander, replaced Joseph and Joshua in the boys’ top 10.
