| I was honestly surprised Adolph wasn't an answer. I expected it to be there before the 1940s and then abruptly disappear. Spent a bunch of time thinking about that and then I forgot Arnold. I like name quizzes that are narrowed down to one letter, well done triplet_3. |

| There just aren't that many Germanic names used in the U.S. There are a lot of Germanic names, both male and female, that I always expect to turn up in these quizzes. None of them do. |

| Really surprised at a lack of "Abrahams" in the late 1800s-early 1900s. |

'Angel'?
Is this a 21st century version of 'A Boy Named Sue'? ;-) |

| ANGEL??? Seriously??? These parents might as well tattoo "pick on me" on their son's head. |

| I think, for the most part, Angel is used as a Hispanic name, pronounced An-hel or An-hale. |

| After seeing the answers, I felt like Dave Seville..."ALVIN!!!". |

| Yeah Angel is Hispanic. Try anything biblical with Hispanic names....Angel, Moses, Jesus, The Jorge of Babylon, etc |

| I had a driving instructor with the name 'Angel.' He was Hispanic, but pronounced it like the word is typically pronounced. Go figure. |

| It's interesting that in the case of Alvin, the chipmunk song/cartoon seems to have killed the name's popularity, while today more people name their kids after pop culture references. |

| The Angels are most likely pronounced awn-hell |

| The dearth of "Alvins" in the '60s is proof positive that the Chipmunk Song was originally released in the late '50s - AS I'VE BEEN TELLING MY FRIENDS FOR YEARS. |

| Arthur had a strong decade run then fell off the map. Maybe parents in the 80's thought naming your kid Arthur would lead to alcoholism... |

| as far as I know, all angels in the bible are male. So it makes sense its a boys name... |

| Actually, skizzo, angels in the Bible are asexual, having no gender. |

| Also while Angel is a hispanic name, a lot of them pronounce their names the english way when speaking to us. |
