Rupert and Reginald not making an appearance. Aristocratic in-breeding obviously has its disadvantages...

Just seen your comment, skizzo! I didn't create as many games in January because I got engaged on New Year's Day and was busy with wedding preparations, plus job interview prep. Seriously starting to run out of available letters for these quizzes now. I'll have to try to come up with some new ideas, evidently!

Apparently Rudiger is not as common a name as I was led to believe. Next you'll tell me there are no Kwyjibos.

I guessed "Reagan", but almost forgot to try "Ronald". And it was "Roosevelt" that was at one point a popular first name....

Awww thanks for the engagement congratulations chikka2 and bgylon! As emmafrisbee says, it was a short engagement (just over 4 months - didn't see the point of waiting longer for the big day) so I'm married now :)

I got desperate toward the end and started typing in ridiculous things like "Rasputin" and "Ropeboy".

Thought Roscoe would be higher. Maybe there are less redneck meatheads than I thought.

Eventually I ran out of ideas and just typed Rumpelstiltskin to see if it might be an answer. I can't be the only one who considered that...

Roosevelt was popular in the 1900s but not the 30s or 40s? I guess people liked Teddy more than Franklin.

Saddened by the lack of "Rex". Classic bad-ass, secret agent style name.

Heh heh heh 'Randy'. No-one's called that in the UK because it means horny. Imagine my glee when I found a 'Randy Pigg' and a 'Randy Nunn' when looking in my company's personnel listings.

When I got down to the last minute, I was trying to run through all of my uncles and male cousins, making sure I didn't forget anything. I forgot my Grandpa whose middle name was Ralph. D'oh!
