Reply:Everyone else has left the top ten or twenty names for that year. I was born in 1986, and I was one of six Kate's in my English class. There were more Kaitlyn/Katherine/Kathleen's in my class than Jessica's or Ashley's. That was in Colorado, though, where Jessica and Ashley were still technically number one and two.
