What would you name girls with names from the last 100 years. Mine would be…
1920- Betty Anne
1930- Elizabeth Marie
1940- Margret Joan
1950- Juliet Louise
1960- Kathy Anna
1970- Tina Nicole
1980- Diana Erin
1990- Olivia Anna
2000- Isabella Grace
2010- Matilda Raine
2020- Layla Eleanor
Providing these are all girls what would name your daughters?
Edit: the last name was Sailor-Rose which is my favourite name. But because the other names are pretty common I decided to use a more common name.
1920 - alice lucille
1930 - clara elizabeth
1940 - anna rosemary
1950 - frances victoria
1960 - diana margaret
1970 - april robin

Surprisingly they are both names that have strong meaning to my family/me. [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] has deep meaning to me, I will not mention why as that is a little too personal. [name_f]Tina[/name_f] is the name of my grandmother, who is very special and dear to me as she is the person who encouraged me to being in Uni to be a doctor to then go to medical school. Sometimes names aren’t just names but stories.

The SSA has a feature where they compiled the data for all of the years in each decade to come up with the top 200 for each decade as a whole all the way back to the 1880’s-2010’s so I figured I’d pick from the top 50 of each decade they had to make 140 years of girls names (the 2020’s are picked from last year’s data):
