Re: Baby Names In The Red vs. Blue States
in reply to a message by EsmeLily
The blue state names are more religious with Miriam / Mirayam, Muhammad, Aisha, Yusuf, Ibrahim, Ali, and Santino. In contrast, not a single one of the red state names are associated with any religion that I'm aware of with the possible exception of Gracelyn, which is sort of a virtue name. The red state names are surnamey and occupational plus an apparent love of oak trees.

I find this fascinating because red states are supposed to be more religious.
Blue have more religious diversity though, as per those names imply
