For Germany, I recommend the lists by Knud Bielefeld athttp://www.beliebte-vornamen.de/jahrgangBielefeld has a large database and he counts first given names only (in contrast to the lists by Gesellschaft für deutsche Sprache who count every occurence of a given name independently of position). This reflects the distribution of the German *Rufnamen* best.
