name game

We played this game awhile ago in this community with the 2006 ssa list and I really liked it, so I think we should do a repeat with the 2007 ssa list.

Take your favorite name for each gender and look up the rating for 2007. For instance, my favorite boy's name Oliver Nathaniel would be 140, 82, and my favorite girl's name Catherine Beatrice would be 143, 899 Then go to each of the different years (2006, 2000, 1985, 1958, 1932, 1907, 1880) and find out what, popularity wise, the name would have been. It takes awhile but I think its really interesting

In 2006, Oliver Nathaniel would have been Nicolas Wyatt and Catherine Beatrice would have been Ana Katharine (interesting)
In 2000, Antonio Liam and Veronica Magdalena
In 1985, Francisco Gary and Jill Sherita
In 1958, Theodore Curtis (I kind of like this!)and Dianne Dara
In 1932, Everett Clyde and Judith Tressie
In 1907, Otto Ben and Lizzie Deloris
In 1880, Silas Allen and Rosie Mahalia (I really like Silas and Rosie, actually)
