Frederick peaked at #56 in 1910 & it's been downhill ever since (now #340). Freddie peaked at 151 in the '40s, & is now #977; as a girl's name it peaked in the '40s at 477 & dropped out of the top 1000 by the '60s. Fred peaked at #19(!) in 1900, and is now out of the top 1000. :(

I find it odd that Joyce as a boy's name peaked at 766 in the '30s & quickly disapeared. It's also odd that perfectly good names like "Sabu" & "Humuhumu" don't show up at all.
