Top Baby Names for 2004
http://family.msn.com/tool/article.aspx?dept=baby&sdept=bpc&name=bc_122904_babynames2004>1=5974

After three years at the top, Emily has been unseated by Emma as the most popular girl name in the United States, while Jacob remained the nation's most popular boy name for the fourth year in a row. The BabyCenter Baby Names List, which is the largest private list available, was compiled from more than 310,000 BabyCenter members who had babies in 2004. Our list combines names with the same pronunciation but different spellings to give a more accurate view of name popularity.

Although the most popular girl names shifted places, no new names entered the top 10 in 2004. For boys, Connor is new to the list, while Zachary has fallen out of the top group.

some of these names I have never heard of in school. Sort of reminds me of the teachers/professors reading out the roster in the beginning of the school year. Out of all these years in school, all the teachers/professors in my life except one have trouble reading out the roster. The only one who didn't have any difficulties happen to be a linguist.

Emma sounds very aristocrat-like~~~
To me, Emily is much better than Emma.
It makes me recall the brand 'Emily the stranger'.hehe...

For an aristocrat-y feel, I like the girl name Eloise, or Isobel.
