This is kind of neat. Enter any name and see how it's popularity fared on a dynamic timeline.

Apparently my name was going out of fashion even in the 1970's.

pretty much what I already thought... Dana peaked as a girls name in the 70s and as a boys name in the 50s.

But do you pronounce it DAY - nah, or DAH - nah?

Since being in Romania, I defer to the latter. I also laugh at men with the name.

Are those so wrong?

Glad my parents thought of such an odd sounding and original name like "Michael"...

haha yeah, dale's never been a popular name at all[/sarcasm]. i was surprised that chase seems to be an exclusively male name. the weird thing to me was that walter as a girls name mysteriously fell out of popularity in the 30s.

this thing is kind of neat.

And, not too many males bearing the name "Adolph" born after 1946.

"Adolfo" seems to be ever more popular, though.

Viva falangismo!
