These names weren't just popular in the 80s... along with Michelle it seemed like 1 out of every 2 girls you met had the name. It is surprising how far they've fallen. Especially Jennifer which has been a mainstay for a long time. Now it doesn't even show up in the top 30?

Ok, so I start out putting in boys and girls names and after none of my girls names come up after about 10 boys did, I concluded it was boys names with J. So I stopped trying girls, then I get done and see Jocelyn, Julia, and jasmine. But that's it. If its both, where's Jessica, Judy, Jennifer, Jane, Jillian, Joan, and so on. Surprising none of those are on the list.

Oh my goodness, why on earth would it be offensive to anybody, especially Christians? Should Mary also be "banned" or all of the Biblical Patriarchs in the name of political correctness? It would leave quite a large hole in the naming process. Jesus was a name used long before Christ. Would it be better to retire the name like its Michael Jordan's jersey and forget about it or to continue to use it and remember?
