Bates Motel seemingly helped the name Vera (because of actress Vera Farmiga) surge in popularity, while American Horror Story: Hotel boosted the popularity of Donovan, Tristan, and Iris — although there’s obviously a case to be made that The CW’s The Flash helped a bit with that last one as well.
Finally, we have the most recent AHS incarnation — American Horror Story: Roanoke — which led to a notable increase in the popularity of the names Lee and Elias among 2016 babies.
Although The Walking Dead and Stranger Things both represented the big winners this year in terms of name influence, other popular shows also got in on the action as well.
