Agreed about
Chandler, although looking at the popularity . . . it was already at 700 in the 80s and was rising steadily in the early 90s - I can't remember when Friends started but there's a sudden peak for
Chandler in 1995 which would be about right. So it looks like
Chandler is displaying the "
Shirley phenomenon" - a name which is already popular which is 'skyrocketed' by a popular bearer of the name.
Lol, it's far too close to beer o'clock to be thinking about this stuff! :-D
