Grace I guess I'm not too surprised. A lot of them are the same as the top of the national ranking (maybe not the same order, but still in the top). Evelyn is different- it follows the -lynn fad, but is an older, established name that could honor a grandmother/ greatgrandmother. My co-worker's son named his daughter that a couple of years ago. Grace is also honoring grandma/ greatgrandma. My cousin's daughter (also 2) was named after a Grace. I'm kind of surprised to see Alexander there because there are so many girls are Alexis, Lexi, etc. But I suppose parents don't usually consult the popularity charts for both genders when naming a kid.
