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