I know a lot of these games have been created, but I couldn't find any that dated back as far as the 1500s. This particular subject I found interesting, as the top 5 names account for 70% of all men
Source: studied, which I guess is something. The rest of the Top 50 Male Names of the 1500s have been included as Bonus Answers.

	I don't usually share the fascination with "Top Names of..." games, but this one was very interesting and fun. Helps just to remember the English Kings!
