HelpRe: Most popular names per country according to a book published in 2012
in reply to a message by peregrine
US stats - Jacob and Sophia were the top names.
Emily was no# 6 and Mary was at no# 121. Poor Jim didn't make the top 1,000 but James was no# 14 and Jamie was 844.
FYI usually baby name books publish the previous year statistics rather than the year of publication.

Yes, the US ones in particular seemed a bit off to me. It was a map book, which included lots of information about each country in addition to the names, so maybe it was just looking for ‘typical names’? Either way, I found them fun to read through even if not all of them were totally accurate!
