      @@a-10warthog51 it's a biblical name with its origins in Aramaic/Hebraic and not an Hispanic name. The written form used in Texas is certainly Iberian (and not Hispanic as Americans define it to be only Spain). Nonetheless, it is just as Joseph that is the written form (with variations) for the same name by French, German and English speaking countries (and some Nordic countries) or Yūsuf for Arabic, Yousef for Persian, Yossi in Israel or even Giuseppe in Italy.

      Film culture had a major influence on little girl names. Mary was popular for a long time because 11 million people watched the popular actress Mary Pickford in movies during the silent era, Debra/Deborah in the 50s because of the popularity of actress Debbie Reynolds. Another fun fact is Debbie Reynolds was originally Mary but studio mogul Jack Warner said it was too passé and decided to name her something more modern.

      Muhammad, and variations of it, are some of the most common names in the world. While it may not be accurate to say it would cover the Middle East completely from start to finish, it would probably dominate the region. He wasn't being particularly racist by making that statement unless you're going to call slight exaggeration of the name's popularity as racism, which it's not.

      I think Linda entered the list in 1940 and dominated it by the mid-40s because the actress Linda Darnell became popular in film in 1940 and remained popular into the 50s. If you look closely, the first state "Linda" dominates is Utah in 1940, the same year Linda Darnell starred in Brigham Young, a movie about two mormon lovers during the time of the establishment of Mormonism in the 1840's. And the next state Linda dominates is California, that's Hollywood.
