To me, what's more interesting than the ranking is that the majority of the unisex names seem to be Celtic or Anglo-Saxon in origin.

Comparatively, there are very few Latin, Greek, or Hebrew names. Perhaps this is because names from the latter languages are still very closely associated with their gendered religious and mythological characters, while those associations have become more hazy with the former.

Αngel is a funny one. For Anglo Americans I’ve only known girls by that name, but with Mexicans (born in Mexico) I’ve only known guys by that name as they have Angela for their girls.

I'd like to see a stacked bar chart where the height/length is proportional to the total number of children. For instance, Robin and Kelley have percentage-wise roughly the same male representation, but in reality there are nearly 2x male Kelleys to male Robins it looks like.

I was born a bit ago, up until I was 12 I had only met 2 Ryan's and they were both women and oddly enough both doctors I saw because I was their patient.

Then my family moved to a different part of the country and I walked into a classroom with 7 Ryan's.

A fair number of these are surnames, and a century ago were probably seldom found as given names: Kelly, Morgan, Taylor, etc.

"bar height is proportional to total births" - bars are horizontal, with uniform height.
