Same era, but close to Julie
These names follow Julie's curve too, but we left them out above because they share a first letter or an ending with Julie. Some parents like that echo; if you do, start here.
How these were chosen
Each suggestion's share of US babies has followed a curve close to Julie's since 1880, and its recent number of babies is within about twelve times Julie's, so the names are in the same league. Names starting with the same letter as Julie or with the same ending are left out, so the names go together without matching. Spellings of Julie itself are excluded.
