The thing that jumps out at me is the continuing presence of the "throw-away" middle names for girls -- Ann, Nicole, Lyn(n), Rose. 'Cmon! No middle name Marie? They missed one!
I find that sexist, I'm sorry. I can't help but feel that boys get "family" names with history that are handed down -- e.g. named for a grandfather, etc. -- and girls get pretty names that "sound good".

A lot of the names do have the "common" mn for girls - maybe some are grandmothers names.

In regard to the "throw-away" middle names...
In some cases, these are family names. I don't know about these particular ones, but my sisters and I have May, Lynn, and Lee among the three of us. All are after family members. And then I guess my sister and I just made things worse. My sister gave her daughters her middle name and mine, and I gave my dd my older sis's mn (also my mom's mn, my g-ma's mn and back 4 more generations). I'm not being snotty or anything, but some people really do think before they use "throw away" names.
