Lyns Throughout the Generations

And by 'generations', I just mean the last 4 or so. :p
I often see "-lyn" names listed as a modern trend, but actually, they're fairly stable part of American names. Between 3-5% of girls get names that end in -lyn every year--of course, which "-lyn" names they get is determined by the fads of the day.
So, I thought it'd be fun to look at the top "-lyn" names for this generation and previous.

*Quite a few "-line" names have multiple pronunciations--"lin", "leen" or "line". With many, there's no way to separate them, but I did remove the ones that were rarely, if ever, 'lin'--Pauline, Angeline, Arline, Earline, etc.

**Before 1937, the SSA did not require all citizens to register for a SSN. Thus, data before this time is voluntary, and therefore not as reliable.
