Number of names that rose: 1 or 2

Biggest faller: Rebecca

Runners up: Stephanie, Amy and Lauren

I can’t believe how far Rebecca fell. I understand Stephanie, Amy and Lauren but poor classic Rebecca. All the big fallers were already on the way down having peaked in the 1980’s or earlier in the 1990’s and now have a mum name image. Samantha and Lauren have both returned and fell out of the top 100 in 2011 and 2013. While much more dated then the top 10 I can easily imagine a baby with any of these names.

      1. It makes perfect sense that way but it’s a shame really. And it won’t rise again since it’s dated now and Bec and Lleyton are still really hated
