Think about the last time you met a Pamela, a Shannon, or someone who introduced themselves as Shad. Were they between 40 and 50 years old? That s no coincidence. While these names may have fallen out of the mainstream for newborns, they were some of the most popular names in the 1970s. You couldn t scroll through a homeroom attendance sheet at a school without coming across at least a few of these names.
Names can tell the story of a generation. To learn more about the culture of the 1970s, Stacker took a look at data from the Social Security Administration Baby Names Database from 2019 to uncover the decade s top 50 names for boys and girls. Each name s current rank is also included to determine whether it s stayed trendy or has gone the way of bell-bottoms.
