In the US, the custom of using traditional names has abated. Beginning with the black subculture in the 1960s, which revived a tradition of inventing names, the of nontraditional names has spread throughout the culture, to the point at which less than half of babies are now given traditional names. And girls are at least ten percent more likely than boys to be given unusual names.
According to a survey of social security data of the past ten years, fashionable girl names now include:
Cameron
Drew
Taylor
Alexis
Dakota
Venice
Sicily
Rio
Troy
What are the popular names now where you live?
