How to read the band

Solid line = floor (spellings that unambiguously belong to the group). Shaded band up to the dashed edge = ceiling (the most it could reach if every ambiguous spelling counted here).

Francisco

Francisco was more common in the past and has since settled at a lower, steady level. All-time it's been given to 146,211 U.S. babies, the 618th most common name by sound today, peaking at 3,051 in 1993, with 1,078 in 2025.

By sound, Francisco also includes the spellings Fransisco.
