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