Baby Name Voyager graphically shows the popularity of baby names.

Examples from among my friends' kids:

Iain: Not in the top 1000 names in any decade from the 1880s to the present. (However, Ian's 2004 rank is 69th)
Simon: 2004 rank: 256th
Andrew: 2004 rank: 6th

Interesting. Emile hasn't been in the top 1000 names since the 1950's. But Emil, without the E, hung on a bit longer. It was in the top 1000 since the 1970's.
