| I know there are other quizzes about baby names, usually listing names by individual decades, but I wanted to do a quiz showing the prevalence of names over a long period of time. Out of all 10 lists of the top 10 names of the decades, there are only 27 *different* boys’ names because many are repeated often, and of those, 19 have appeared on more than one decade list (the other 8 that made the top 10 in only one decade are listed as bonuses). There are 49 *different* girls’ names from the 10 lists, as the girls’ names tend to drop off and get replaced more often, usually only making it onto 1 or 2 decade lists. Thirty girls' names have been on more than one top 10 list (the other 19 that made the top 10 list in only one decade are bonuses). |
