Soap Opera Baby Names | Nameberry

Baby names from soap operas, inspired by melodramatic characters, often appear on the popularity charts. If you're expecting a dramatic little one, a "soap" name may be right up your alley. Soap operas can be credited with launching names such as Fallon and Nash back into public consciousness.

Names inspired by the soap opera titles include Dallas, Peyton, Colby, and Melrose.
