Each suggestion's share of US babies has followed a curve close to Danna's since 1880, and its recent number of babies is within about twelve times Danna's, so the names are in the same league. Names starting with the same letter as Danna or with the same ending are left out, so the names go together without matching. Spellings of Danna itself are excluded.
