As always, many of the spellings are rather....ambiguous, and could easily lend themselves to multiple pronunciations.
In previous years, I've listed names with more than 20 spellings recorded, but either my former "browse and count" method was inefficient, or there's a lot more "creativity" this year (I'm guessing the former), so I'll only be listing names with 25 or more recorded spellings.
I know, you're sad now. ;)

65 spellings of Kayden? How is that even possible? I'd love to see your list of variants. Jeebus.
