Re: names used in argentina
Thank you, nice and interesting link, but do you happen to know how to read the tables? Are there numbers of births or numbers of people alive for a certain given name listed somewhere, maybe in the column "circular"?

The column "circular" means "sentence, report", in reference to document proving the existence of the name (Santoral- saints' list) or allowing the use (012-DGRC-2000: document 012 of 2000 from Dirección General del Registro Civil; 878/946: report 878/946).There are some articles about allowed and rejected names in Argentina, but they are in Spanish and I don't know if they can be interesting for you.
