If you aren't getting as many matches on your online dating app as you'd like, you might be able to blame your parents.
In a study from online dating app The Grade, there seems to be a handful of names that get swiped right a little more often than others.
For women, The Grade notes the names Brianna, Erika, Lexi, Brooke, Vanessa, April, Natalie, Jenna, Molly and Katie were identified as the sexiest.
The hottest names for men, on the other hand, were identified as Brett, Tyler, Corey, Andy, Noah, Shane, Jeffrey, Rob, Frank and Jeff.
And the app's study didn't stop there. According to Cosmopolitan, The Grade looked at how the names matched up, noting that men named Mike had a tendency to match with women named Brooke, and women named April appear to be into men named Tom.
Of course, you can't exactly change your name for your dating profile (actually you can, but it is highly frowned upon), but some online sites do let you create your own.
And while you could just choose Brianna or Brett as your alias, the CBC reports that creative names that start with a letter in the first half of the alphabet are more likely to get noticed. So get to it, Aliciana and Bobcaygeon!
