The Baby Name Wizard's NameVoyager

The Baby Name Wizard's NameVoyager is a really nifty applet that lets you explore baby name popularity throughout the last century. One of the most interesting patterns I found was among the "Shani-" names. Type 's','h','a','n','i' into the search box and you'll see what I mean. Note the rise and fall of Shaniqua as a name (Via Matt)
