#23Funny how many names I'd assumed were common are, evidently, not popular at all anymore. For instance, I would have guessed Melissa (#372) and Brittany (#934) would have been at least in the top 100.
They were probably just popular around my birth year and therefore I've been exposed to them a lot amongst my cohort.

#24I was looking for this and had to search for it - here's the page with names that increased in popularity and ones that stayed the same: https://www.ssa.gov/oact/babynames/rankchange.html
Mateo is apparently a very popular name that I've never heard of or seen anyone go by!
Weird.

#25What is with these awful bastardized spellings of traditional names? Jaxtyn? Xzavier?
Man these kids are going to grow up with some stupid-looking names and spending their whole life correcting people on pronounciation.

#28I’m curious about variant spellings for names (ie Jason / Jaycen). When did it start and for what purpose?
19th/20th century immigration led to variant spellings as old-world names were recorded differently depending on the ear of the immigration agent.

I think a lot of it is Mormons[1].
