Help[Facts] Re: For Mike C: Name popularities for Korea and Japan.
in reply to a message by Higuma
I also copied the Benesse rankings to my own given name website for years until I noticed how few births must be included there.
Just consider the following: Spain has only about 1/3 of the inhabitants of Japan, and as you can see here the most popular female name had a count of over 4000: http://www.nancy.cc/2019/10/15/popular-baby-names-spain-2018/
If you check the Benesse data for 2018 the top name has a count of merely 29: https://st.benesse.ne.jp/ninshin/name/2018/
Conclusion: Benesse must work with only 1 in 100 births or so. This is not very useful IMHO.
