Judith, it was a rather good comparison, if I believe what my sons tell me. I saw a fraternity house the day after a bash and I can tell you that it was a horrible sight. I took a group of foreign students there for a visit and when we entered the hall, I retreated and closed the doors before they could smell the place and see the mayhem. This frat house was not the best on campus, but I understood then that the best one was much worse.

My name peaked at 82 in the 1920's and hasn't made the top 1000 since the 1960's, when it was 464.

That's a cool website...it's amazing the fashions in names. Shows that some religious names are really building quickly in popularity like faith while other biblical names are in decline like ruth.
I was thinking of people I know and about their birth vintage and sure enough the popularity at that time was evident...I know 3 different people with granddaughters named emma and it's one of the fast growing names now.
Mother's name has lost popularity over the decades to the point it no longer registers...marguerite.
