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