OK. Over the next few weeks I will be posting a number of challenges to prove your name-nerdiness. Once you have completed a challenge on the thread, I will record your score on my table. I will then tally up the scores and announce who will be taking part in the name-off! All the rules will be clearly explained but if anyone has any questions-I don’t bite.
CHALLENGE 1:
Find the least and most popular name of a year. Then choose another name to fit these two names together in a sibset. I will give a point for each name and a score out of 10 for each chosen name. You can’t use a year that someone else has already used so the quickest people will get more points. I will not reveal the points but I will reveal the top 3 competitors.
Note - by least popular you do mean the number 1000 name? That’s what I am using, but will change it if I am wrong. Also note - i may not have time to finish this whole contest, but we’ll see!
1910 - [name]Mary[/name] and [name]Arietta[/name]
Sibset: [name]Mary[/name], [name]Arietta[/name], and [name]Anna[/name]
1956- [name]Mary[/name] and [name]Beverly[/name]
Sibset- [name]Mary[/name], [name]Beverly[/name], and [name]Kathleen[/name]
This was fun so excited for more
jame1881: Sorry I didn’t make it clear but I just meant the least popular baby name for that year. Oh and you don’t have to do all of them. Anyone can join in on any of the challenges-it just makes sense if you do all of them because then you get more marks.
