Re: Is Lisa Making A Comeback?
in reply to a message by BlakeIsHereStudios
The data does show a slight rise after a slight dip in usage over the past few years. The absolute numbers (actual number of babies named Lisa) are:
2016: 345
2017: 308
2018: 308
2019: 276
2020: 243
2021: 248
2022: 289
2023: 313
I would be surprised if these slight fluctuations so far down the list represent a significant revival of Lisa. Names of the grandparent generation tend not to be popular for babies, especially girls. If this were so, for example, 1940s/50s names like Linda, Barbara and Carol would have had a revival around 2000-2010.
