Carson is the perfect example of the surname name trend. It hovered near the bottom of the charts for decades, but shot to the top in the early 2000s. Without a doubt, the popularity of TV host Carson Daly in the late 1990s played a role in the meteoric rise, too. A new celebrity on the scene and the surname trend were enough to turn Carson into a new favorite with parents.
