Mine (Theresa) made it as high as 41 and 43 in the 50's and 60's (I was born in the 60's). It dropped to over 200 in the 90's. Not all that popular apparently. :lol:

My three sons names seem to be right up there (ds4 even gets the No1 spot!) and my daughter's comes in fairly high up too. Thank goodness mine has slipped down the rankings!

Karen first appears in the 1930s and climbed to no 3 in the 1960s - well I was born in 1965! It's dropped back to 128 in the 1990s - not many kids nowadays with my name - it definitely marks my age! :blush:

Daniel was pretty popular in the 50's when I was named (22nd) but has gotten a bit more popular. It was #7 in the 1990's. DW Sally was not too popular in the 50's like #528 and hasn't gotten much more popular. DD Alexandra didn't even register until the 1970's and is like #28 in the 90's. Seems like we see a lot of Alex names about.

i have a 21yr old nephew named Daniel - i love that name and one of mine would have been that if only my sister hadn't got there first.....:lol:

i have another sister named sally...well, sallyanne actually but we call her sally (unless we're telling her off! :lol: )

a mum at my ds7 school is named sally, and a girl in his class it too which i thought was lovely to hear when he started as it's an unusual name theses days.

Interesting site :thumbs:

Lisa - no 1 name in 1960's and no 6 in 70's (I was born in 1970)

DH Colin - most popular in 1990's! (DH born in 1960) this shows it is a US site because there aren't many young Colins running around over here.

DS Daniel - consistently popular - no 7 in the 1990's when DS was born.

DD Caitlin - only registered from 1070's onwards - no 69 in 1990's (DD was born in 2000)
