Method
What the overlap means.
A shared name appears in each publisher's female or male ranking for 2025, with the same spelling after case and Unicode normalisation. Accents remain distinct, and a name recorded in different categories is not joined across them.
2025 is the latest year held in common across these reviewed datasets. Only names within every list's published top 50 are included, so missing names may sit just below a cutoff.
Popularity does not establish a name's origin, pronunciation or suitability in a language. Counts and ranks describe separate populations; we do not add them or create a combined popularity score.
