steerthestars · January 16, 2010, 10:20am

Go Background information for popular names and type in the year “1985” to get the most popular 500 baby names in 1985. [name]Remember[/name], many of these names are now considered trashy and overused!

It’s regular elimination: drop 2 and add 1. But the name you add MUST be in the Top 500 names of 1985. I’ll start the list with the Top 20 names of 1985.

[name]Ashley[/name]
[name]Amanda[/name]
