If someone used a name that was big 10-15 years ago, but falling in popularity now, it would seem…

  • Still trendy/expected
  • Even more stale than using a currently trendy name
  • Unique/unexpected
  • Dated in a bad way
  • Normal/nothing in particular
  • Totally depends on the name

A name for a morally gray character, who uses her head, and not her heart. Who has a quiet facade but a scheming, calculating mind and knows more than she lets on. She is clever and good at manipulating others to perceive what she wants.

examples

Place A had 100 births, including: Henry (56), Oliver (45), James (32)
Place B had 1000 births, including: Oliver (250), James (100), Henry (20)

By amount:
1st Oliver (295)
2nd James (147)
3rd Henry (76)

By percentage/ranking average:
1st Oliver (35% average)
2nd Henry (29%)
3rd James (21%)

@Finn

here be math

I originally voted ā€œby percentageā€ but looking at your example, averaging over percentages with different base amounts leads to very misleading results and is therefore bad practice. Results depend too much on where you divide the places. If for example you’d define one of the Henrys from Place B to be his own place, Henry would surge up to (56/100+19/1000+1/1)/3 = 53%. Without changing the actual amount of Henrys or births whatsoever!
