Yes, since it re-entered the top thousand in 1945, the year after the book was published, it seems certain the book brought it back to the public consciousness, but it didn't enter the top hundred until 1974. It's interesting to me that when names are introduced or re-introduced from books, it still takes a good long while before they come really popular. My name was introduced in a novel published in 1899, but didn't enter the top hundred until 1932. And then there's Scarlett. GWTW published in 1936, and the name mostly absent from then until 1992, and the top hundred not until 2011.
