All the babies were featured in the local paper today, so I got the stats for the most popular names in 2007. This is for Windsor, Ontario, Canada.

The most popular boy's name was: NOAH

However, if you add Jack and Jackson together, it's by far the most popular (17 babies named Jack or Jackson vs. 12 named Noah.)

The most popular girl's name was: JULIA

Names that rhymed with 'ayden': 19

Where I live (western U.S.) Mia and Maya are also different. But Sara and Sarah are the same.

You know what, it is possible that I and the few other people I've heard pronouncing 'Mia' have just been pronouncing it wrong. I wouldn't be surprised.
