Thanks for the link provided by adjkant below, here's the ranks per year: 2019 139 2018 90 2017 65 2016 51 2015 32 2014 63 2013 60 2012 57 2011 55 2010 50 2009 43 2008 50 2007 40 2006 39 2005 66 2004 72 2003 67 2002 69 2001 78 2000 87 I agree tha…
I must admit that a reason for the popularity spike doesn't pop to mind but presumably there's some pop culture thing I'm not thinking of.

In the German speaking world the name Kevin is ruined, with some men having that name being avoided in the dating scene.

Baby name wizard has Alexa peaking in the 1990s when combined with various other related names.
