Top 100 Men’s Names From The Last 100 Years

The Social Security Administration has compiled a real list of the top baby names of the last 100 years. The super official U.S. organization tallied up all of the names given to 172,891,221 male babies from the years 1917 to 2016 to result in the Top 100 list of male names below. Although the most popular moniker for males is James, the SSA notes that it doesn’t mean the name has been uber-popular each year for the past 100 years. In fact, James has ranked as low as number 19, really, not too shabby.
