What ever happened to babies named Jane
Bob Greene notes that the top 100 names for girls from the 1980s omit Jane Nancy and Susan while names like Jessica Nicole and Heather appear. Janet Schwegel cites statistics from 22 US states and seven Canadian provinces showing Jane and similar names are no longer fashionable. Kindergarten teachers confirm the trend as Jane is now mainly found among older women.
