NameMapper

Do you, like me, enjoy exploring the temporal evolution of the popularity of given names in the United States using the NameVoyager?  If so, you might also be interested in the new NameMapper, which offers useful ways to look at the popularity of names in time and space. That is, you can see the popularity of any name over time and in each state.  (select a year map, the hover over a state to get the name's rank then and there.)  Neat!
