Common Names
 

We've looked at data before on how common different names are, but this is a pretty cool graphic view of it. Click here and enter your name or your alias: http://www.babynamewizard.com/voyage...se&exact=false

What's cool is that you can also enter partial names. For example, enter the letter "O" and you can see how much less common "O" names are now. In contrast, enter the letter "Z" and see the opposite. Kind of fun to check out. Not like roller coaster fun or flag football fun, but fun if you're procrastinating a deadline.

I tried to find Luv's name in there, but it kept saying "No names starting with 'SLOTHWHORE' ranked in the top 1000 in any time period"

Mine has gone from statistically virtually nonexistent when my parents chose it to occurring about 150 times per million today for boys.

The way the chart changes as letters are entered is cool as all get out.

My name does not appear on the list. Not surprised though, I have only known one other person with the same first name and that was my father.

Not alot of people naming their kids "dicksucker" anymore.

you are on a roll tonight

Mr Rainman you always have the most interesting links. I have already forwarded two today to others.

No names starting with 'BUG' ranked in the top 1000 in any time period.

I am curious as to why Rain Man would be visiting a website such as this, is there a Rain Baby on the way?

Shhh. My wife visits this site, and she doesn't know yet.

You should see the ones that I don't show people. They'll blow your mind.

I recently lost my VA card and had to fill out a form to get another. For a joke I wrote in "Killer hands of death" on the line that asked me for any alias's I might have had. They never even looked up or said anything, just typed it in on the new office form. Must be official now since its on a Gov document. ;)
Oh and I can't find that alias used anywhere else.

My username was a big fat ZERO.

My real name hit 409 in the 1960's and seems to have gone non existent since the 80s

Sounds like a birther anti-Obama thread is coming up. MODS! send this to the DC!!

Peaked at 470 in the 80's.

Dammit! Mine doesn't either!

:p
