Same era, but close to Alice
These names follow Alice's curve too, but we left them out above because they share a first letter or an ending with Alice. Some parents like that echo; if you do, start here.
How these were chosen
Each suggestion's share of US babies has followed a curve close to Alice's since 1880, and its recent number of babies is within about twelve times Alice's, so the names are in the same league. Names starting with the same letter as Alice or with the same ending are left out, so the names go together without matching. Spellings of Alice itself are excluded.
