	GReat quiz! I like the UK Names better in general! Phoebe, Poppy, Evie...

	Great idea for a quiz! :)

	I don't know, there's not enough of a difference to say that one set is "better" than the other. I find Poppy to be horrible. Makes me think you're setting your kid on the way towards heroin addiction, but that's me. I'm also not so sure I'd want to name my kid "Maisie." To each her own, though. I'm not one to get too uppity about what other people name their kids. If it means something to them, more power to 'em. I do think it's interesting that the UK version has both "Sophie" and "Sophia," while the U.S. version just has "Sophia." It also kind of makes me happy because I named my own daughter that...in 1992. It was nowhere near the top 5 at that time.

	UK names are definitely better. The US loves to use boy names for their little princesses, the UK is more respectful in that aspect.

	I had no idea the name "Poppy" was popular in the UK. I personally don't like but I suppose it is a flower. In general, I like the UK names better!

	The UK names are so much better, some of the US names are actaully terrible...Aubrey, Makayla, Brooklyn are digusting names!

	Re: the quality of the UK vs. the US list: If one considers the ideal name to be a full name (not a nickname), a first name (not a surname or place name), a name not recently created & lacking history, and a name traditionally spelled, the lists come out as follows: The US list is composed of 56% full first names correctly spelled. The UK list is composed of 64% full first names correctly spelled. So one's preference might be based on what naming "sins" one finds most egregious. If you hate nicknames-as-full-names, the UK list is much more of a disaster than the UK one. If you hate surnames-as-first-names, newly-coined names, and gender-bending, the US list is much worse. I find the US list more flawed overall, but each has some awful, awful clonkers. (See: The shudder-worthy Nevaeh & the awful Scarlett.)

	Should say "If you hate nicknames-as-full-names, the UK list is much more of a disaster than the US one." Darn countries with such similar abbreviations. ;)

	This is a really good quiz, interesting to have the comparisons. I do feel a bit sorry for the children saddled with weird spellings. I get really fed up with spelling out my surname and I hope none of them are dyslexic either. :-)

	Isabella being #1 in the US makes me a sad panda.

	Thanks for making this a Curator's pick, Sporcle! I'd been hoping for a while that it might be recognised. When the UK 2011 data comes out later this year I'll be able to make an updated version, too. :)

	that was me, welcome :)

	Aubrey is not a horrible name. My sister is named Aubrey. It means "king of the elves", so it's not like it's some dumb variation on Audrey.
