Shackleford, A.S.A. Beginning in 1998, for births in 1996 and 1997, the Office of the Chief Actuary has published lists of given names in popularity order by gender and year of birth. The original version of these lists were published as Actuarial Note 139. Since the inception of this project updates have been added for births in 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2001 as well as years prior to 1996. The source of the data have been samplings from Social Security Number card applications. The size of the sample has ranged from 1% to 100% depending on the data available at the time the list was compiled. The selection criteria is based on the last four digits of the Social Security Number, which are random and not correlated with a particular geographical region. In cases where multiple cards were issued to the same person, a rea son for this might be a lost card or a name change, the name on the last application was used. Unless otherwise stated birth on U.S. soil is not required for inclusion in the sample. An exception to this rule are the t op 1000 lists for each decade.
