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