Name Game

I stole this from another board because I thought it was fun:

Go here and look up the rank of your name for the year you were born.  Then look up the corresponding name for that rank in 2010.

For example, my name was ranked 10 in the year I was born. In 2010, I would have been a "Mia".

What's your 2010 name?

P.S. You can still play this game if you don't want people to know your real name or the year you were born.  It would take quite some time to figure it out.

    I like Harper as a name. To Kill a Mockingbird (written by Harper Lee) is an amazing book. I don't think I would name my kid that, but only because it would sound that good for our last name. Names are such a matter of personal preference though (w/i reason of course).

    I think it's cause I went to school with a guy name that, I just don't see it being a Girls name...

  • I'd be Alexandra.  Karen was in the top 10 from 1951-1968, but #64 when I was born.

    I LOVE the name Harper for a girl, but our Prime Minister is Stephen Harper and everyone would think we named her after him.

  • In '82 I was #33-- in 2010 I'd be Alexis.  Interesting...
  • My name would be Mary. How much more boring can you get? I'll stick with Kristi, thankyouverymuch.
  • In 1979 when I was born, Michelle was #10.  So in 2010, I would be Mia.  I think I like mine better.   Funny that both me and my husband's name (Brian) were both #10 in the year I was born

  • Erin was #79 in 1973.  Had I been born last year, I'd be Payton.  Eew.  Can't seem to get away from the non-specific gender names.
  • My name was #94 the year I was born, so my 2010 name would be Valeria.

    Not okay with that lol.

  • Ashley was number 2 in 1986 (although that is not how I spell my version of the name), in 2010 I would be Sophia.

  • 507th in 1986, and now it's 833rd. However, that's with my spelling (Chelsie). If you spell it with an -ea or an -ey, it brings it up the list a bit.
  • Rebecca was #12 in 1981 I'm still a very traditional name with Elizabeth...I'm kind of shocked that it was #12 of the 2010 list though...

  • This is so cute/fun!

    2010 equivalent to my name: Melanie.

    Hmmm, not my cup of tea.

  • My name was #6 the year I was born...My 2010 name would be Emily.
