[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so hyper localized. Is there a way to check top 5 by zip code? I can guarantee Kathleen hasn’t been in the top 10 in many many years, but I had 3 of them in my class the past 2 years, yet no Isabella or Charlotte.[/quote]

It's true. My kid has a top 20 name and we've only ever met one kid with the same name and it was on a playground years ago and we never saw them again. My best friend gave her kid a name that wasn't even in the top 1000 at the time and even now is in the 800s, and there are 3 kids with the name in her kid's preschool. I think she caught a hyperlocal trend whereas we benefit from the fact that so many people in this area won't use a name deemed too popular.[/quote]

+2  We were in a gymnastics class with maybe 12-15 kids total and there were three boys named Logan.  I'm sure all the Logan moms were like, [i]WTF??  I could've just used Liam at this point![/i]  But I only have daughters so maybe Logan is a known popular name.[/quote]
