ArchivesQuestions on popularity lists
I was browsing various lists and came across the following names that aren't in the database. I was curious as to them.
Croía - Ireland, f
Vilgot - Sweden, M
I'm also curious about Turkish names having so many double name combos in their list. How does this work?

As for the Turkish double names...
Whether or not double names appear on a country's lists depends on who is compiling the data. For example, in the US the SSA removes hyphens and spaces from the data, so that Julie-Anne, Julie Anne, and Julieanne are counted as a single entry. The Turkish data does not remove spaces. Double names are evidently quite common there. You can also see double names on the Spanish and Mexican popularity lists.
