We all like to pretend that it's what's on the inside that matters most when we're picking a mate.

But as studies continue to show, most of us are more superficial than we'd like to admit. And according to data from dating app The Grade, that shallowness might even extend to our potential dates' names.

That's right: people with certain names are more popular on online dating apps. 

The Grade, an app that lets you score your matches and downvote rude or inappropriate people, collected data on which male and female names attract the most right-swipes. They also figured out which name was most likely to match with that person.

The differences are significant. The most popular women's name will be swiped-right by 70% of guys, while the least popular one measured by The Grade, Tiffany, will only be swiped-right 28% of the time.

Meanwhile, men will have an even harder time getting through to potential female matches. The least popular men's name measured, Joel, only gets right-swiped 3% of the time, while the most popular men's name has a 24% success rate.

Keep reading to see the top 10 names for women and men on The Grade.
