Top Baby Names by Year

Trying to decide on a baby name? Want to know how popular the name has been over the years? Or, maybe you are just looking for girl or boy names.

With this Tableau powered visualization called "Top Baby Names by Year" you can choose male or female names and get the ranking of the top 1,000 baby names, from 2000 to 2010. The data is based off of the Social Security Administration's tracking of baby names.
