## Notes

Data comes from public SSA baby-name records. Official SSA ranks treat exact spellings separately. Hushling's combined spelling ranks group common spelling variants and recompute ranks by sex. State counts can be lower bounds when rare spellings are suppressed in SSA state files. Hushling is for exploration, not prediction.
