Notice that we've gotten away from naming our children after Christian saints.
Take a look at the names. You'll see what I mean.

Good try! You may not have lived up to your name with this score, but we have faith you'll do better next time. Do you have one of the names mentioned above?..
I knew I wouldn't do well with this one but had to try 🤷♂️

6 out of 12. Not bad! 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
9/12 score; teaching during those decades helped me remember!
Me, too. 9/10.
Now Names are not spelled the traditional way and I can’t pronounce most of them.
True Dat!
11/12. I think Olivia got a boost from Law & Order: SVU and Jessica was made more popular by Murder, She Wrote (I've met two Jessicas this year as a matter of fact).
David may have gotten its boost from David Letterman, but it was kind of popular in the fifties as well. I know--I have two cousins named David, one on either side of the family.

10/12 - I have a niece named Jessica born in the 1980s. She's about to have a baby girl, but I'm not aware of what her name will be yet.
