Popularity analysis

Based on the statistics provided, it appears that the name Lenetta has had varying popularity over the years in the United States. The highest number of births with the name Lenetta occurred in 1956 and 1958, with 16 births each year. This could indicate a trend towards naming children Lenetta during these years.

However, there is no clear consistent pattern in the popularity of this name over time. For example, there were several years with only a handful of Lenetta births (as low as 5 in some years), while other years saw more than double that number (up to 16). This suggests that the name Lenetta has not maintained widespread popularity over extended periods but has experienced peaks and valleys in its usage.

Despite this variability, the total number of Lenetta births across all these years is quite significant at 394. This indicates that while the name may not have been extremely popular every year, it was still chosen for a considerable number of babies born in the United States during this period.
