"A Hispanic name - José - No. 1 for Arizona boys"

http://www.dailystar.com/dailystar/metro/55341.php

"PHOENIX - Tom, Dick and Harry are being replaced in Arizona by José, Angel and Jesus... And Michael, the most popular name a decade earlier - as well as in 1984 and 1974 - now has slipped to sixth place.

What's behind the shift? Arizonans who identify themselves as Hispanic are out-reproducing everyone else in the state. What makes it all the more remarkable is that Hispanics make up less than 30 percent of the state population, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. "
