Re: To Mike: Popularity Germany
The owner of baby-vornamen.de has replied and given the permission to use the lists from their site. The names and ranks are fairly similar to Knud's, but names are NOT grouped by similar spellings.This brings us to a difficult choice: is it better to have the top 20 from 1890 to present or the top 30 from 1950 to present?

Can't we have both? I'd love to have both.In general I prefer spellings not to be combined especially as he does it in a questionable way (combining spellings that wouldn't be pronounced the same)

I could put both up up, but one would have be hidden. If there are two lists of different names for Germany 2021, that'll leave people scratching their heads I think.

Yes, true. As long as it's still there I think it's fine to hide it!I would prefer the version without the spellings being combined because I think many people wouldn't agree with how he adds the names together.
