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