Because baby name data is fun!This site utilizes the baby name data
provided by the SSA to explore many interesting patterns and trends in the naming
of babies. This site is primarily here to entertain anybody and everybody who
has a name and knows people with names. However, this site might also be an excellent
tool to help you decide upon a special name for a special baby. - Gender
Neutral Baby Names - Here you will find a list of names that our analysis
finds to be the most gender neutral. Some of the boy/girl names on the list include
Skyler and Peyton.
- Old Fashioned
Baby Names - The names that grace this list once enjoyed great popularity
in their heyday. This should serve as due notice that not all popular names maintain
their appeal. Some of our old fashioned names include Homer, Ethel, Archie, and
Gertrude.
- Popular Baby Names
- O.K. there was no analysis necessary on this one since it is basically the raw
data provided by the SSA. However, it still interesting to list the most popular
baby names together with their chronological history of baby name popularity.
- Traditional
Baby Names - These names have stood the test of time and have remained popular
for the last 100 years. Based on the religious demographics of the United States,
it isn't a surprise that Mary and Joseph found their way towards the top of the
traditional names list.
- Alternative
Baby Names - These are names that essentially first introduced n the 1990s.
Well, to be exact, these are names that were not in the lists of the top 1000
names for any decade from the 1900s through 1980s. Some examples of the alternative
names on this list are Jordyn and Tevin. Make note of the downturns that some
of the names on the list have taken.
- Exotic
Baby Names - These are names that made their first showing in the top 1000
baby name lists in 2001. Many of these will probably prove themselves to be trendy.
Regardless, some do sound pretty cool like Omarion, Ximena, Cadence, and Gael.
I
know you probably want to see even more interesting results. Me too! I've been working on a new and improved version of this site, Baby Names 1000. The goal of the new site it to enable visitors to research cool things about names on their own. | |
