How popular is your first name?

I have no idea where this information comes from, but Name Statistics is kind of a fun site. It will tell you how common your first name is, and then give you some HTML to paste in your blog or webpage or wherever you'd like.

For Example:

Otto is the #504 most common male name.
0.018% of men in the US are named otto.
Around 22050 US men are named otto!

Dorcas is the #1388 most common female name.
0.005% of females in the US are named dorcas.
Around 6375 US females are named dorcas!
