This is nifty:

It's an interactive graph of the top 1000 most popular names over the
last 120 years. As you type in your name it displays popularity
graphs of names beginning with those letters. Then you can click on
the graph to choose one name alone displayed.

That's about the coolest and fastest graph I've ever seen.
What confused me a little at first was the scale, because it changes
depending on the popularity of the name. They'll let a name spike to
the top, whether it's in the tens of thousands (John) or the tens
("Sunshine" topped out at 100-per-million).

Holly is going to love this. One of the first real adult books she
eer bought with her own money was a good baby names book.
