Neat

The Social Security Administration has a baby name site that lists most popular names by decade, etc. For the 1960s, the most popular girl's name was 'Lisa'. Yes, just like me (I go by Eilir online, my middle name, and of course Elisabeth is my first name--but my birth name was Lisa, and I still largely go by that, since it's short for Elisabeth. I changed it when I chucked my father's name in 1993. Full birth name: Lisa Kay Broadbent. Full name now: Elisabeth Eilir Aranea Rowan. That might help if you're someone from my past who Googles me. Anyway, you get the picture.) Check out the site.

Thanks to anderskb from LISNews for that tidbit.
