[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I notice that the big issue at work is that with autofill email, people have been accidentally sending John D's email to John W. Having a vomon name can be a privacy issue.[/quote] Is it really a "big" issue at work? Also the vast majority of names are not as common as "John." In fact no kids today are being given names as common as John was at its peak or even long after its peak. In the 1880s, more than 8% of all male babies were named John. By 1964, it was 4%. Today, it's less than half a percent. And the most popular boys' name in 2024? Liam, which was still only given to 1.2% of boys born last year. https://www.behindthename.com/name/john/top/united-states?compare=liam&type=percent So the John D. and John W. email problem is solving itself.[/quote]
