Elizabeth is back in fashion now. Martha is still rare. Margaret is pretty common and Mary is being used a lot...but mostly it is Emily and Emmie and such as that.
My name's nowhere in there and I was born in the mid-40's. None of my brothers or sister's names are there either. I'm going to have to ask my mother if she wanted her kids to be unique or what!
