Re: M birth announcements

A beautiful list, as always.
Is Martha on the rise in the U.K? (I assume the first half of the names are from the U.K., right?) That would be an unexpected and welcome surprise. Martha is such a quiet classic. It's nice to see her get some attention. I knew a Marta once and wondered why it wasn't more popular here in the U.S.
Siblings Elsa and George? Wowee. And their baby sister Mary? Thank you, Alexandra and Jonathan, thank you.
Morven is intriguing, especially in the context of siblings Rhiannon and Gregor. Maximilian Horatio deserves a prize.
I can feel Matea / Mattea rising in popularity. It's in the air. It's got "instant hit" written all over it. Maksim adn Marko are tall, dark and handsome classics that make me want to travel every time I see them.
Thanks for sharing!

In England & Wales Martha is #81 in 2009 and has been holding its position for a few years. Marta has actually had a bit of a revival in Croatia too (#15) and it's quite high in Spain, so it definitely gets used around the world if not in the US.
I'm surprised Mattea isn't in the database and Matea was only recently added.
And yes, the first group is from UK the second from Croatia (I wrote it in the post;-)).
