[Facts] Popularity lists 2002
The SSA has released their list of the most popular baby names for 2002. I've added it, as well as 2002 for England/Wales, to this site. I know some people were waiting anxiously for it!

Just wondering where you got the US lists from? I went to the SSA website and they said the 2002 lists would only be published in mid-May. I'm looking for the lists with the corresponding numbers, so it would be great to know if I could get those any earlier :o) And yes, I'm one of those people who've been waiting for these anxiously ;o)Thanks,
Sandra

What fascinated me was how the names (Holly and Molly) are almost equally popular, whichever spelling is used.
