Limitations

First off, there's millions of people, so there's millions of names. After I compressed it, the entire dataset was still ~20MB. That means it's not only big to download, but it can also take several seconds to search through it all in the "search" tab. Also, for privacy reasons, it only includes names used more than 5 times in a year. So, I guess you miss out on the funniest ones. Oh well. :(
