Finally! British Columbia's Top 20 for 2004!
We had to wait until April to get these, but at last we have them! (And I must say the site's punctual: I checked it at 12:04 a.m., April 1st, and the list was already up.)

Link, with tons of other names that didn't make it into the Top 20: http://snipurl.com/drqb (they also have years going back to 1997 on this site).
As for my own name, 22 babies were named Miranda in 2004. :-D
EDIT: Mixed up Ava with Paige in the newcomers' notes.

I like all of the boys' names, except for Dylan, Evan, Logan, Joshua, and Ethan.
For s, I like: Emma, Hannah, Ella (only if it's short for something. For example, my niece's name is Gabriella Noelle Nelson. We call her Ella. Grace, Sophia spelled Sofia, Isabella spelled Izabela, Abigail (that's my best friend's name), and Rachel. As you can see, I don't like very modern names.
