[Facts] Top names in Romania
I found some news articles (citing official data) about popular names after 2009:
top 10 for 2012 - http://www.digi24.ro/stiri/actualitate/evenimente/care-sunt-prenumele-preferate-de-romani-cei-mai-multi-copii-botezati-andrei-si-maria-31349
top 20 for 2013 - http://www.gandul.ro/stiri/ce-nume-neobisnuit-i-au-dat-parintii-acestui-baietel-nascut-anul-trecut-in-sectorul-1-din-bucuresti-top-20-nume-la-baieti-si-fete-in-2013-11943474

top 3 for 2016 (rounded) - https://www.digi24.ro/stiri/actualitate/social/numele-preferate-de-romani-656050
Also some official data for Iasi county (4.0% of the country's births):
top 10 for 2018 (only Iasi county) - https://www.dlep-iasi.ro/comunicate-de-presa/cele-mai-frecvente-prenume-atribuite-copiilor-nascuti-in-municipiul-iasi-in-anul-2018--487.html

top 10 for 2021 (only Iasi county) - https://www.dlep-iasi.ro/app/getpdf.php?id=3870
Could they be used for an update?
Thanks

This is useful information, but the parameters of the different lists are not consistent enough for me to incorporate them into the current Romanian series (the gaps in the years, the different numbers of names per year, the different reporting areas).
