	Linda and Lisa: soon to be rest home names it appears.

	pepperg:	Aug 11th, 2011 at 16:32 GMT	1 point
	i'm a lisa...and not that close to rest home status yet!! seems my parents weren't very original in name their name choice.

	debbiedoesnothin:	Aug 11th, 2011 at 19:05 GMT	4 points
	Nice quiz. How stupid that the one I forgot was Lisa, the most popular name for my generation.

	Imon:	Aug 12th, 2011 at 14:00 GMT	4 points
	The usual pattern seems to be that after a name ages out of use, it rests a generation, and then comes back. When I picked Emily as my daughter's name, all the Emilys I knew of were dead or in their 90s - who'd have thought it would become so very popular so soon? And I was surprised at how few names were needed to finish the quiz. Very interesting and a lot of fun.

	Really interesting quiz. It really helps to have played other Sporcle name games. A few years ago a young colleague referred to a teenager she knew by saying it was funny to hear of a young girl named Linda. Being of the Linda generation, I felt ancient. But I just smiled and nodded, hiding the pain.

	PublicEnemy:	Aug 16th, 2011 at 15:29 GMT	5 points
	Wow so 6 guy names and 8 girl names make up like 130 years of most popular naming? We aren't very original.

	cuhrabbs:	Aug 17th, 2011 at 23:27 GMT	0 points
	lol just type in mary and youre almost done :3

	yellowdart5:	Aug 18th, 2011 at 13:39 GMT	1 point
	Before I started guessing names, I did not believe that 4 minutes would be enough time.

	kustacey:	Aug 22nd, 2011 at 22:33 GMT	1 point
	Damn you, David, and damn you, 1960!

	thebestofthemall:	Sep 3rd, 2011 at 17:10 GMT	-1 points
	Just want to imform kustacey that my game is now fixed!

	skizzo:	Sep 13th, 2011 at 18:21 GMT	0 points
	Yes, we're not very original. At least most of them are decent - except Ashley which is a MALE name.

	aznemesis:	Oct 25th, 2011 at 05:49 GMT	1 point
	Imon: I did something very similar with my daughter. When she was born in 1992, Sophia was out of fashion. Today, it's one of the most popular names out there. As for me, my parents were very much influenced by the names of the time. My own name (Kimberly) was incredibly popular in the early '70s, when I was born.
