According to the Social Security Office...here is where those names ranked by popularity in 2024 (by gender):
Jennifer - 547 (down from 431 in 2020)
Michelle - 409 (down from 336 in 2020_
Kimberly - 246 (down from 186 in 2020)
Michael - 18 (down from 12 in 2020)
Kevin - 196 (down from 157 in 2020)
Jason - 148 (down from 119) in 2020 * Note that Jaxon was 96th in 2024
So, Michael is still popular and there were more Jaxons than Jasons in 2024. Travel ball still has a future.

Yes. I was referring to the nickname "Mike" which used to be extremely popular. I graduated with about 15 of them in the 80s.

So, what nickname do you think they are using for all of these "Michaels"?
