What's in a name?

A friend's daughter, and her name is Luna Rose!
The folks at Social Security have a webpage that ranks the popularity of names, by state and by year..going back to 1960...

So you can check to see how common your name was the year your were born and in the state in which you were born too (presuming you were not born before 1960).

For example, in 1963, the most popular boys and girls name for the year in Alabama were James and Lisa.
In 2011 it was William and Emma.

Here's the link to the page...select "by state" or whichever qualifying factor you want...and have fun!
