Help[Opinions] Re: Interesting triplet set
in reply to a message by Aine
Okay, Swayze is a Ghost, John Tucker Must Die... how does Sawyer fit in?
Swayze is interesting to me, like, not as a name I'd use or even want to see, just the popularity... It was used 5 times for girls in 1989 (two years after Dirty Dancing, 7 times for boys in 1991 (after Ghost came out), then nothing until 2004, when it was used on 6 girls (there were a few movies in 2003 and 2004, but Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights came out at the beginning of 2004). 2005, 5 girls, 2007, 5 girls spelled Swayzee, and then it has appeared every year since Patrick Swayze died (in 2009)-- 5 Swayzee's in 2009, 17 girls and 7 boy Swayzes in 2010 (he died late in 2009, September, so not surprising the effect wasn't seen until the next year), 26 girls, 6 boys, and 13 girl Swayzee's in 2011... in 2012, 53 girls (+20 Swayzees) and 14 boys, 2013, 59 girls (+17) and 9 boys... going back down in 2014, 50 girls (+18) and 9 boys. I don't know, it's just so weird. Has this happened with the names of any other actors?

it would be interesting ...
But the only recently-dead actor's name that I can think of that isn't either already pretty familiar as a first name or totally unlikely to ever be, is Brando.
