While the Golden Knights inspired many things throughout Clark County during their incredible inaugural season, they apparently didn’t have much impact on baby names.

According to the Southern Nevada Health District’s release of the top boy’s names among Clark County births in 2018, names such as Marc, Andre, William, Nate or Shea didn’t even crack the top 20.

In a post on Twitter, the health district announced that Liam was the top boy’s name in Clark County last year, according to its Vital Records program. Rounding out the top five were: Noah, Elijah, Sebastian and Daniel.
