These are the overall SSA trends for all the names appearing here. The data is over a 5 year span (2012-2016). I bolded the really large rises/falls (like 100+ ranks).
Ranks & Rising
Alice (#126 -> #76), Josephine (#160 -> #114), Violet (#89 -> #47), Luna (#223 -> #77), Helena (#559 -> #518), Hazel (#172 -> #52), Clara (#136 -> #99), Louisa (unranked -> #825), Willow (#171 -> #96), Eleanor (#135 -> #41), Adelaide (#345 -> #258), Matilda (#657 -> #497), Miriam (#306 -> #292), Stella (#62 -> #45), Sylvie (unranked -> #955), Beatrice (#695 -> #559), Eloise (#362 -> #209), Freya (unranked -> #330), Lydia (#95 -> #80), Rose (#258 -> #153), Ivy (#186 -> #112), Lucy (#66 -> #55), Victoria (#28 -> #21), Anastasia (#335 -> 192), Rosalie (#404 -> #254), Charlotte (#19 -> #7), Eve (#557 -> #456), Iris (#281 -> #186), Aurora (#167 -> #66)

Phoebe should be in the Ranks & Falling section; you have her in Rising. But I do find it intriguing that, for the most part, BtN's tastes are trending upward in popularity.
Honestly, in the United States, I think you'd have to be very brave, with very thick skin, to name your son Ashley. I say this because, when I was born, Ashley was the #1 girls' name in the country, and I went to school with SO MANY ASHLEYS, it was unreal! Despite its unisex roots, it has a distinctly feminine image in the U.S. post-1990.
I'm imagining being a Xanthe right how, and I think it would be really cool to have a name like that.

I agree about Ashley, except I think the kid would need very thick skin more than the parents.

Thanks for catching that; I was seriously starting to forget which way numbers go by the time I was finishing this up and I know I kept putting things in the wrong area. Didn't catch all of them, obviously.
