[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's interesting because I think think this is so location dependent. Obviously you're going to find a lot more Sabines in DC/NY than other parts of the country. So the numbers are skewed. [/quote] Well the top 1000 number is not skewed as its based on national SSN data. I also know from experience that sometimes trends start local and then spread. We named our DD a name outside the top 1000 eight years ago, but it was on the rise in DC and we've met several girls with her name in schools. I just checked the SSN list and it's now in the 200-300 range. I think there might even be some top 100 names that were outside the top 1000 not that long ago (as all these old lady names have come back into fashion). It's cyclical.[/quote] I mean a name could be 1500 nationally but top 500 in DC, so the pure top 1000 list isn't really representative because it's national. [/quote]
