The Top 1000 Baby Names List is a fun tool that lets you look at how baby naming trends have changed over the last 15 years. It shows the top 1000 names for both boys and girls, going all the way back to 1990. Jacob and Emily top the list for 2006, but in 1990, it was Michael and Jessica. Also that year, Emily was # 12, and Jacob was # 20. Brittany was # 3 in 1990. Today, it doesn't even make the top 50! Some popular baby names can disappear almost as fast as they arise.
