Tinder reveals Australia’s most dateable first names

Just when we thought that all we had to worry about was charming people with a top-notch bio and some quality profile pics, we get thrown another curveball in the dating game.

As it turns out, there is another factor people consider when deciding to swipe left or right on our dating profiles and that’s our names!

New data from Tinder has revealed that for singles in Australia, certain names are getting more matches than the rest of us.

Looking at the list of top ten most swiped-right names over the last 12 months, Liv came out on top for the ladies and Oli for the men – which isn’t really unexpected given both Olivia and Oliver were also on the list of most popular baby names of 2018.

However, the rest of the mix certainly came with some surprises.

For instance, many seem to be attracted to names with international flare with female names like India and Paris ranking highly, along with the French male name Antoine.

On the other hand, some people are still partial to Aussie classics, with names like Lachie, Hunter and Harrison all making the cut as well.

So there you have it – if your name made the list you probably owe your parents a thank you for contributing to your Tinder success.

And if your name didn’t make the list well… you might want to put a bit more effort into the rest of your profile.
