The SSA has released their list of the most popular baby names for 2002. I've added it, as well as 2002 for England/Wales, to this site. I know some people were waiting anxiously for it!

Just wondering where you got the US lists from? I went to the SSA website and they said the 2002 lists would only be published in mid-May. I'm looking for the lists with the corresponding numbers, so it would be great to know if I could get those any earlier :o) And yes, I'm one of those people who've been waiting for these anxiously ;o)

Thanks,
Sandra

Brit List

By Jove, the English are odd!

On the nice new list, Molly is at 14 and Holly at 15. Go down a bit, and lo! Mollie is at 69 and Hollie at 70. Strike me pink.

What fascinated me was how the names (Holly and Molly) are almost equally popular, whichever spelling is used.
