Abstract

Danish onomastic research today has exciting new possibilities, thanks to an extensive data bank of personal information compiled through the government's civil registration system. With computer access to such facts as individual years and places of birth, for instance, we can undertake very detailed analyses of the distribution patterns of personal names in recent times.
