Dropping Fast

Thanks to a Facebook App. I learned some real trivia about my name- and my parent's originality in naming me:

Barry's parents get a B+ for originality.
Ranking: 'Barry' was the 74th most popular boy's name in his birth year.
Rarity: 30% of boys had rarer names that year. (Grade: B+)
Peak year: 'Barry' peaked in popularity in 1962.
Current rank: 'Barry' isn't currently one of the top 1000 boy's names.
Current name: Barry's parents might name him 'Sebastian' today (current #74).
  • Peaked in 1962?
  • Not even in the top 1000?
  • Sebastian?
Oh well!
