There were some letters that were more difficult than others. If any of the numbers in parenthesis exceeded 2000, they may or may not be 100% accurate. I had to look up individual names to see where they may rank, put them in a list with other looked-up names until I couldn't find any more. Then I took the top 10 that I could find. It is possible that a name or two fell through the cracks. If you find an error or a missing name, please let me know so I can fix it. This is as accurate as I could possibly find in my research. Which letter is your favorite?
