in reply to a message by RoxStar
I've seen all these names used. Bumped into a little Hazel the other sat. BtN is a great way to see upcoming trends.

Look at the stats on these -all but a few are rising.
It's true
Here are the only ones that AREN'T in the top 1000 and rising on the SSA lists:
Sylvie (not on the top 1000, but it did rise a little from 2011 to 2012. It's popularity doubled on BTN in 2012).
Freya (ranks in the UK, Ireland, Scotland and we ARE an international board).
Louisa (rising but not ranked. Falling in the UK.)
Cecily (rising but not ranked.)
Astrid (rising but not ranked.)
Lyra (rising in the UK. Holding steady just below the top 1000 in the US)
Catherine (ranks highly but falling.)
Seraphine (rising but not ranked. Everyone predicted Seraphina would get really popular after the Affleck baby, but Seraphine is a little more accessible I think).
Margot (rising not ranked. Will rank for sure next year if it continues at it's current pace!)
Ophelia (rising not ranked)
Grace (ranks highly but falling)
Lily (technically fell a spot last year but it's holding pretty steady in the top 20)
Tamsin (rising not ranked.)
Elisabeth (falling)
Kira (falling)
Delphine (rising not ranked)
Eira (rising not ranked)
Guinevere (rising not ranked)
Saga (falling not ranked. and by "falling" I mean it was used 5 times in 2011 and vanished in 2012. However, if I remember correctly, this is favored more by non-American posters. Very popular in Sweden!)
