Re: Best source for US given name popularities? Project help needed

The SSA website gives you the option of seeing the actual number of births for each name, so you can combine different spellings of the name yourself if you wish. 6,671 Lily + 2,239 Lilly + 635 Lillie = 9,545.
If you combine all the spellings of Aiden, Abigail, etc. then you can refigure the rankings.

This site takes the SSA data and groups the names by spelling. Few different spellings are mistakes, though, so it depends on your purposes:
