Re: And top 20 1944 boys.
in reply to a message by Pie
I'm surprised Christopher was so popular back then. I think it's because I know so many who were born in the '70s and '80s, not to mention a couple who are still small children that I think of it as being a much more modern name.Barry is one of my least favourite boys' names. I just do not get the appeal of it!

Christopher Lee! & thinking about it, there's one in my family tree in the 1700s. It's a proper classic that's been in long-time constant use, but yup, I've never really thought about it as one either because of the millions of Chrises in the 70s and 80s. Interesting.Totally with you on Barry. It just reminds me of the seaside town in South Wales, and thus has an aura of scuzz about it :)
