HelpRe: July BAs
in reply to a message by Pie
It's usually like everywhere else, names that become very popular in one generation are not used much in the next generation.
There are names that are always very popular though (mostly Saint's and Bible names).
There are also names that are steadily used, but never become too common (I guess names like Tomislav, Zvonimir, Petar, Nikola, Barbara, etc. -again Saint's names and historical names).
I found a statistics from 1900-2010 and the only names that have stayed in top 10 through out are Ana and Marija for girls, Ivan, Josip and Marko for boys (all Bible names, as I said), Stjepan and Petar come close to it also.
