Social Security's Top 1000 Names for 2005

[museofmyself.livejournal.com]

For your viewing pleasure. Or in my case, horror. My daughter's name, Lily, has jumped to #39!! Nobody was naming their daughter Lily back in 1996! I thought I was giving my child a lovely, unusual name. Argh. ;)

I think it's hilarious that Mikayla and Makayla are that high up, yet Michaela, which I consider the proper spelling and so much more elegant, hangs limply at #284

That's as far as I've gotten. Not found my name yet.
