ANGLO-AMERICAN NAMES (nameset 20)

8.7% of American population

Not surprisingly, there is a lot of overlap between the English nameset (20) and the American modern (0), American historical (39), and Canadian (32) namesets, particularly in the upper end. Names like Smith, Robinson, Turner, and Johnson are common in England as well as in English-speaking North America.

As with other namesets, non-native names have been deleted, typos have been corrected, and duplicates deleted. Many of the English and Welsh names deleted from the Scottish and Irish namesets have migrated to the English nameset, which means that this English nameset is far larger than the standard English (20) nameset in OOTP.

Sources that I used include:
