From a link from fortysomething's blog, I went and looked at the most common boys and girls names in 2001 (based on Social Security card application information, state by state.) It's amazing to see the commonality, and how blatantly we follow "name" trends, like lemmings walking off a cliff. (Which they don't really do, by the way..the 1950's Disney documentary that showed that they do, was staged!) Go to snopes and look up lemmings. Do it.
