Kimberly was #60 in 2002. the site doesn't go back far enough to tell me where it was in 1986 though. all i know is it wasn't in the top ten.
so i'm semi-common.

"Erin" has gotten less and less popular over the years, but it's still in the top 100.
Which is why I changed it.

so it's pronounced hesus? cause i thought that was a completely different name, like a spinoff on the jesus thing.

In Spanish, "j" is pronounced "h". I've never heard of anyone named Jesus, pronounced the American way.
