Theres the link above, but I loved the topic!! <3 Because its so true! Different spellings to names add up and really make a difference. I would even delve in deeper and say that similar names could all be grouped together because of nick name potential. (ie Emmeline, Emily, and Emma could all be grouped with Emmy cause they are all just so alike.. and either of them could be called Emma / Emmy).

I copied and pasted, too lazy to write it all out But the most popular variation is first, the number in parentheses is where it stands for the SSA charts, and the names next to it of course are the other variations. And as the post itself says, the top five are pretty much the same. But others make some leaps!

Your thoughts? Lemme know what you all think! I really enjoyed reading through <3

For boys, Aiden and its various spellings (there are NINE) take the top spot away fromJacob, and Jackson jumps from #22 to #2! Jacob doesn’t show up until #4 after all the spellings of Jayden. And Kayden and Dominic look like the names with the biggest gain.

So interesting!

These are always fun

My initial thoughts:
* WHY AUBREY?! Why do you have to do this to me? *swoon*
* Hooray, Evelyn and Samuel aren't as popular as they were reported to be!
* That's a lot of Aiden/-aiden names O_O

In fifty years they'll say Aiden & Emma Doe.
