One name dominates over the decades.
As the years go on, soon-to-be parents are inspired by different trends when it comes to picking a baby name.
And, while we may be getting a little more creative with our name giving in recent years and changing our minds frequently, decades ago popular names stayed put for a while.

Find your birth year and see whether your parents went along with the trend at that time.
