Please visit the sourced URL provided. Scroll down for detailed statistical usage. Of note: The popularity among the Nations generally considered 'western'. Unfortunately Mexico/South America aren't included.

Even though the only real comprehensive statistical sampling is done for the U.S, there is definitely a noticeable skew in the others. Some downward some upward.

Looks to me like the Scandinavian countries are collapsing while Jolly old England and some her descendants are holding the center on Western Civilization. Australia, Canada and New Zealand differing. Proximity might be an explanation but Canada wouldn't fit then. Perhaps it's a deep hidden anti-american sentiment from Britain's younger children.

In an odd coincidence the number of countries listed is 12. The number of the tribes of Israel.

I have a grandson on the way, to be named JAXSON. I believe the name is related to Jacob

Jacob owes it’s current popularity to the “Twilight” series. I wish I were joking.

James, the English version of Jacob, appears far more often among English-speakers.
