Okay, the rules of this game are pretty simple.

1. Find out the highest rank that your name achieved on popularity charts. (excluding 2010 itself)
2. Find the corresponding rank on the 2010 chart.
3. See what you would have been called in 2010.

(You can use this site for ease)

For example: My name is Hannah. The highest rank it achieved was #2. The 2nd most popular name in 2010 was Sophia. Therefore my name would have been Sophia.

You can also do middle names too. (Mine would be Kennedy)

Hope this makes sense, and have fun!

Hannah/Sophia :)

1. Yasmine reached #384 in 1997.
2. Jane was #384 in 2010.

So Yasmine would have been Jane.

1. Danielle reached #14 in 1987.
2. Natalie was #14 in 2010.

So Danielle would have been Natalie.


Mm.
What do you guys think?
Instead of being Danielle and Yasmine, we would have been Natalie & Jane. :)

I'll be honest. I would rather be Jane than Yasmine, but I think Dani's name suits her.

Now, lets see If I can do It right the second time.

Alex was #674 in 1999 so that would be Ellen.

So I would have been Ellen instead of Alex. I like my actual name MUCH better.

------------------------------------------------

Ashley was #1 in '91 & '92 so that would be Isabella.

My sister would have been Isabella instead of Ashley. I like my sister's name and it fits her, but I like Isabella better, even though Isabella and Alex don't really sound good together.

---------------------

I think I did it right this time. (:

In 2001, Jenna made it to #45 (the highest out of the 50 years I checked). In 2010, Aubrey was #45.

 

And in 1965 Lee (on girls) topped out at #237. In 2010, Paisley was #237.

 

So I'd be Aubrey Paisley. Yikes. I really don't like either name. I think I'll stick with Jenna Lee  ;)
