	Hard to believe that names like Micheal, Sterling, and Felix beat names like Ronald, Kevin, and Keith. Fun quiz!

	I'm surprised to see names like Mason, Ivan, and Solomon, but no Brian, Greg, or Kyle.

	Nice Bonuses, I got Hugh and Jesus.

	Turns out that Jason is still not an answer, even after typing it 8-10 times.

	For a while, it helped to think about U.S. Presidents and Vice Presidents.

	Exhausting...

	sivi125:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 20:42 GMT		7 points
	Who knew Jeremiah would be more popular than Jeremy?

	Sachsen:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 20:52 GMT		13 points
	Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" helped out with a few.

	Bob91351:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 21:40 GMT		8 points
	@sivi125 - And here we named our son Jeremy instead of Jeremiah so it wouldn't sound so old-fashioned...

	Bob91351:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 21:43 GMT		13 points
	It is tough when you have to think of every possible spelling and derivative of the same name, including misspellings(?) - Michael/Micheal?!?!?

	deco:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 21:49 GMT		-2 points
	surprised Jordan, Ryan or Callum isnt on the list

	EphesiansFan:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 22:42 GMT		6 points
	Huh, no "Chandler".

	BeckyJPM:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 23:03 GMT		7 points
	Out of desperation, tried Zebedee. Knew it was a long shot.

	Mick9:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 23:17 GMT		11 points
	@BeckyJPM after seeing a huge gap in names between Edward and Eric, I actually guessed Eggbert... >.

	Thanks for the publish! I'm glad most people seem to be enjoying the quiz. The spelling/derivative issue is just part of the way the SSA tracks the data. Looking back at the data, Jason should be a bonus answer, since it only missed making the SSA's list in 1899. I'm sorry I missed it earlier!

	its funny because theres only Jesus and Hugh in my office...

	JacketFan:	Aug 8th, 2011 at 23:59 GMT		5 points
	Leroy (not 2009) and Tommy (not 1880) were also bonus answers. Leroy? Go figure.

	how did the incorrect spellings of michael and matthew get up there?

	Meltha:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 00:16 GMT		6 points
	Abel (1905) and Reuben (2010) are also bonuses. Also, I freely admit that I am stunned Avery dates back that far.

	Atario:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 00:37 GMT		16 points
	Hah! Alvin, Simon, and Theodore are there (though I got none of them :'( )

	ivyagogo:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 02:05 GMT		1 point
	Grrrrrr...over!

	tomstar86:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 03:48 GMT		2 points
	Nick (2010) is another bonus on there, too

	dancastro:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 04:35 GMT		3 points
	As obvious, I tried Joseph but just Jose was accepted. Oh, Spanish names are also valid, I thought. So let's go with Antonio, Carlos, Juan, Luis and Pedro. (Missed Francisco and Lorenzo, however).

	Jelle:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 04:36 GMT		3 points
	@Sachsen: plus, his name is two first names as well!

	aznemesis:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 07:12 GMT		2 points
	I was a little surprised to see so many Spanish names. I wouldn't have thought they would be as popular in 1880, considering that many of the states with high rates of Spanish-descended citizens weren't U.S. states at the time. I guess most of them were at least territories, though.

	Scored 7 bonuses, including Dale.

	Desperately trying to figure out what could possibly come before Abraham, I actually tried Aardvark.

	Qwerty3000:	Aug 9th, 2011 at 13:57 GMT		1 point
	Got nine bonuses: Abel, Anton, Duncan, Hugh, Jason, Jesus, Leroy, Nick, Tommy.
