HelpRe: how is taste even measured?
in reply to a message by RoxStar
It's measured by me. I was making the judgment, so it was measured by me. My judgment is that you see a big difference between what is most liked here and what is most used by the general public because the people here have better taste than the general public does. Although anyone is free to post here, people who love names enough to find a site such as this one and post on it regularly are different from 99.9% of people, who shake their heads and inwardly, if not outwardly, roll their eyes at the very idea of a board like this one.

it isn't me ...
Who determines what's popular in the real world, on real kids. The SSA has the data, and the UK and other countries collect and publish their own data, and the top twenties for each country are very different from the one for BTN.

It is true that the names we like tend to be up-and-coming, sort of pushing fashion ahead of them.

I'm not sure what your point is. I didn't say it was you. Obviously the SSA list, and whatever means the other countries use, are indicators of the taste of the general public. You pointed out the difference, and I gave what I think is the reason for it.
