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