Names
Can anybody update me on the name-to-be of Kaitlyn's little bro? Here's an interesting website to check out: you type in a name, and it gives you a graph showing the popularity that name over the last 120 years. "Nicole" became common around 1950, and peaked in the 1980s. "Mattie" was really popular in 1880--yes, 1880--but it declined over the last century. Though it's climbed back a little, in the last 15 years. It ranked as the 777th most popular name in 2005! That's not bad.
