1. A - Which popular name belongs to the actress, who in real life is Naomi's daughter, and Wynona's sister?

Answer: Ashley

In addition to Ashley which ranked #4, they are: Alexis #5, Abigail #8, Alyssa #14, Anna #19, Alexandra #37, Amanda #39, Allison #44, Andrea #46, Amber #51, Autumn #73, Angela #76, Alexa #78, Ariana #89, Alexandria #91, Angelina #95, and Aaliyah #96.

Answer: Brianna

 The masculine form of Brianna #18 is ,of course, Brian... Other "B" names include Brooke #57, Bailey #69, Breanna #94, and Briana #100. It's interesting to find the same name listed in three different spellings.
3. C - Which name belongs to the real life daughters of both Candice Bergen, and Olivia Newton John?

 Chloe ranked #30 on this list which included six more "C" names. They are: Caroline #62, Courtney #72, Catherine #80, Christina #81, Claire #82, and Caitlin #90.
4. D - Which name is used, in the possessive form, in the first word of the name of a singing group ending with the word "Child"?

Answer: Destiny

 The singing group Destiny's Child was led by Beyonce Knowles...In answer to my request for information about famous persons named "Destiny", queen quizzies suggested mentioning Destiny Hope Cyrus who stars in the TV show "Hannah Montana". She is also the daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus, and an actress turned singer who uses the name of Miley Cyrus...The survey, which marks Destiny at #22, includes one additional "D" name.

It's Danielle, at #63.
5. E - Which name was ranked #1 for baby girls in the USA in 2002; was the name of poet, Dickinson; and Suzanne Pleshette's character on "The Bob Newhart Show"?

Answer: Emily

 This traditional name has gained tremendous popularity in recent years. It is followed by Elizabeth #9, Emma #13, and Erin #60.
6. F - Which name belongs to singer Hill, and to Kelly Ripa's co-star on an ABC sitcom about a pair of sisters?

Answer: Faith

 The sitcom is "Hope and Faith", starring Faith Ford and Kelly Ripa...Faith was the only "F" name to appear on the list. Its rank was #53.
7. G - Which name belongs to the lead singer of Jefferson Airplane/Starship; and a famous movie star (who became a real life princess) of the 1950's?

Answer: Grace

 Actress, Grace Kelly, who became "Princess of Monaco", tragically died in a car accident in 1982. Grace Slick is the famous singer...Grace earned the #16 spot on this popularity list which includes two additional "G" names. They are the very similar Gabrielle #50, and Gabriella #84.
8. H - Which name was used for the TV characters of: Andrea's daughter on "Beverly Hills 90210" and Joanie's daughter on "Providence"?

Answer: Hannah

 Hannah is one of the few names that is spelled the same backwards, and foward... I can't think of any others beginning with "H"... Ada, Anna (or Ana), Ava, Elle, and Eve are all palindromes with "A" and "E" initials...Hannah was #3 in popularity. The "H" list includes two more names. Again, two spellings of the same name made the cut. Hailey #34, was immediately followed by Haley at #35.
9. I - Which name belongs to the late Ingrid Bergman's actress daughter; and a famous fifteenth century Spanish queen?

Answer: Isabella

 Isabella Rossellini is the famous daughter of Ingrid Bergman. Queen Isabella was married to King Ferdinand. This royal couple sent Christopher Columbus out on his famous voyage... Isabella is rated #28. The very similar name of Isabel completes the list of "I" names, with its #87 rating.
10. J - Which name belongs to actress Lange and singer Simpson?

Answer: Jessica

 "J" was a well used initial. Jessica #10 is followed by the ever popular Jennifer #25, Jasmine #26, Julia #27, Jenna #45, Jordan #48, Jacqueline #70, Jada #75, and Jade #98. Jordan also appears on the list of most popular boys names, where it ranks #39. It's the only name that is listed for both genders.
11. K - Which "K" name was most popular in the USA in 2002?

Answer: Kayla

 Though they are all generally popular names, neither Kristen, Katie, nor Kelly appear on this list..."K" was another popular letter. Besides Kayla #17,(for which I could not think of a celebrity connection) the list includes: Kaitlyn #31, Katherine #36, Katelyn #52, Kimberly #61, Kaylee#66, Kylie #93, Kathryn #97, and Kelsey #99. Do you notice a pattern here? Katherine is accompanied by five additional names that derive from the same source.
12. L - Which name is owned by model Hutton, actress Holly; and the actress who starred in "Key Largo", as well as many other movies of the 1940s and 50s?

Answer: Lauren

 Actress, Lauren Bacall has enjoyed a very long, successful acting career...Lauren was the #15 selection. Three more "L" names included: Laura #83, Leslie #85, and Leah #88.
13. M - Which popular girl's name in 2002 was the surname of an early American president?

Answer: Madison

 James Madison, our fourth American president served two terms, from 1809 to 1817. Today, his last name is a very popular first name... Madison is defined as "son of Matthew", a very masculine definition for the second most popular girl's name. But then, unisex names have become very trendy...Madison was the #2 selection. Also, "M" was the second most popular initial, with twelve additional names making the cut.

They are: Megan #20, Morgan #29, Maria #40, MacKenzie #41, Mary #49, Makayla #54, Madeline #55, Michelle #59, Melissa #74, Mia #77, Marissa #79, Mariah #86,and Molly #92.

15. O and P- There is only one "O" name, and one "P" name on the 2002 Top Baby Names list. Which two are they?

Answer: Olivia and Paige

 Olivia,(as in Newton John) is #11. Paige,(as in Mary Paige Keller, of "That's Life") ranks #71.( There are no listings for the initials "Q","U","W","X", or "Y".)
16. R - Which name belongs to actress Ward ; and to a popular "Friend"?

Answer: Rachel

 You may remember Rachel Ward from "The Thornbirds" miniseries. And you're sure to know Jennifer Aniston's 'Rachel Green' of "Friends"... Rebecca was the only other "R" name to appear on the list. It was ranked #47.
17. S - What was the name of the most bewitching character on a popular 1960's sitcom?

Answer: Samantha

 "S" is another popular initial for girls; with: Sarah directly following Samantha (#6) in the #7 spot, Sydney, at #23, Sophia at #38, Stephanie, at #42, Savannah at #43, Sierra at #56, Sara at #58, and Shelby, at #68.
18. T - What is the first name of singer Dayne, and the last name of a very famous ("Academy Award" winning) British- born actress?

19. V - Which name belongs to the actress who is best known for her role as Pamela Ewing on "Dallas"; and the famous nineteenth century queen of Great Britain?

Answer: Victoria

 The "V" list includes just two names. Victoria ranked #21. Vanessa is second on the "V" list, with its #65 rating.
20. Z - Which name was given to the characters of: Cybill Shepherd's younger daughter on "Cybill", and Sela Ward's younger daughter on "Once And Again"?

Answer: Zoe

 Yes, Zoe and Chloe are the rhyming names...At #64, Zoe, is it for the letter "Z"! Well that ends our alphabetical list of the most popular girls names of 2002. I hope you enjoyed the quiz. Today's baby names include a mixture of modern creations, old standards, and gender cross-overs; as well as the use of last names for first names.

The trends are forever evolving; and the names of celebrities, their offspring, and the characters they portray on TV and in movies are among the factors that influence them.--- If you enjoyed this quiz, you might want to try my Part2 quiz, which covers the list of boy's names from the same survey.
