If Saylor and Baylor get together, do you think their relation-ship is gonna sink? Or will it be smooth sailing?

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Ugh. Fucking Oakleys. The worst.
As a parent in a red state, I've noticed way more last names as first names than what I grew up with. This seems to match that trend.
What gets me is that Cohen shows up twice for republican boys (that last name is like Smith for Jewish people)
It's odd to see very Jewish names at the top of both the blue and the red lists of boy names.
I don't think the reds know that Cohen is a Jewish name.

So this is just binary red/blue? Seems iffy given how diverse states are (eg there are about as many Republican voters in "blue" California or in "red" Florida because California is way larger). I wonder what this would look like at the county level...
Comparing states without county-level resolution is mostly useless. Had several people a few threads ago say Illinois is progressive. No, Chicagoland is progressive, rest of the state is almost all red.
Florida is less deep red than I would have expected.
There’s a ton of snowbirds from New England there.

Some weird names there. Gunner and Baylor?
And isn't Stetson a fucking hat?
Oaklee is a brand of sunglasses, and they've got it there 3 times for a girl's name lmao
Conclusion: Tragedeighs are more likely to be issued by conservative nutjobs than leftie snowflakes.
