Another game!

Post of list of your five favorite combos for each gender (if you don't have five, just make some up).
Look on the 2007 SSA list (http://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/popularnames.cgi) and see where each name in the combo ranks.
I'll give you a year. Go see where the ranking would fall on those new lists.
Let's see what combos we can come up with!

Use these years:
Girls Combos
#1 = 1954
#2 = 1911
#3 = 1945
#4 = 1922
#5 = 1971

Boys Combos
#1 = 1908
#2 = 1966
#3 = 1989
#4 = 1996
#5 = 1950

Here's mine:
Madeline Amelia (61, 77) = Virginia Ellen
Elizabeth Audrey (10, 51) = Frances Bernice
Julia Catherine (34, 143) = Frances Audrey
Charlotte Ruby (102, 116) = Elaine Christine
Vivian Rebecca (210, 105) = Rose Alicia


Benjamin Colin (26, 119) = Roy Max
Julian Henry (66, 91) = Lawrence Jay
Oliver Matthew (140, 9) = Angel James
Josiah Timothy (106, 100) = Cole Victor
Ezra Theodore (301, 342) = Jerald Rene


I like Virginia Ellen. My last three girls would sound better flipped (Audrey Frances, Christine Elaine and Alicia Rose).  The boys names all stink.

*Since some of my names are not listed, I'll just keep them the same:

Claire Isadora (66, not listed) = Ruth Isadora
Eve Shiloh (618, 804) = Dena Lavada
Juliet Leah (516, 68) = Cecile Suzanne
Amelia Vivienne (77, 210--if I go with Vivian as an alternate spelling) = Wilma Faye
Adrienne Calliope (751, not listed) = Faye Calliope

James Zachariah (15, 444) = Albert Lacy
Felix Grey (379, 418) = Brandon Rusty
Dietrich Aaron (not listed, 52) = Dietrich Gregory
Isaac Benjamin (41, 26) = Jason Kevin
Vincent Christian (110, 22) = Bernard Edward

Well, I thought it was pretty funny that I ended up with Faye twice in different years at different rankings. Cecile is nice but way too close to my middle name (Cecelia). Jason Kevin has the worst flow. Dietrich Gregory is fairly nice but feels like cheating because I didn't have to change Dietrich.

I think it's funny that Grey ended up being another sort-of color related name, haha.
