Ranking Jumps, 2016 (girls)

Yay, girls turn!

First off, the top risers from the Top 2500:
  1. Yurani, +??? (not ranked --> #2040)
  2. Yamila, +5540 (#7955-->#2415)
  3. Aavya, +3096 (#5423-->#2327)
  4. Kehlani, +2455 (#3324-->#869)
  5. Teigen, +2224 (#4695-->#2471)
  6. Arlet, +2135 (#3807-->#1672)
  7. Ivanka, +2119 (#3958-->#1839)
  8. Elowen, +1815 (#4044-->#2229)
  9. Annora, +1652 (#3881-->#2229)
  10. Lyanna, +1629 (#2784-->#1155)
  11. Oaklyn, +1620 (#3045-->#1425)
  12. Maisyn, +1536 (#3807-->#2271)
  13. Khari, +1429 (#3737-->#2308)
  14. Jamaya, +1336 (#3680-->#2344)
  15. Jupiter, +1314 (#3680-->#2366)
  16. Zailey, +1307 (#3461-->#2154)
  17. Grettel, +1278 (#3507-->#2229)
  18. Khalani, +1274 (#3461-->#2187)
  19. Advika, +1266 (#3737-->#2471)
  20. Bowie, +1244 (#3680-->#2436)
Whoa, what is Yurani? Did Larry Hernandez have another daughter? :p (apparently not, Google is bringing up a telenovela character and a Venezuelan waterfall; I would blame the telenovela)
Also, Jupiter? For girls? Huh. Elowen & Annora are no surprise; I feel like they've been on everyone's list recently.
Rather sad that Rey didn't quite jump nearly as much as Kylo and Ren did for the boys (it went from unranked to #2712).

Next, the names making the move from 'obscure' to 'uncommon', from the Top 1500:
  1. Kehlani, +2455 (#3324-->#869)
  2. Lyanna, +1629 (#2784-->#1155)
  3. Oaklyn, +1620 (#3045-->#1425)
  4. Harlyn, +1177 (#2388-->#1211)
  5. Merritt, +829 (#2303-->#1474)
  6. Zaya, +819 (#2126-->#1307)
  7. Rae, +797 (#2064-->#1267)
  8. Arleth, +759 (#1780-->#1021)
  9. Aveline, +683 (#2002-->#1319)
  10. Arlette, +626 (#1661-->#1035)
  11. Royalty, +617 (#1149-->#532)
  12. Waverly, +612 (#1731-->#1119)
  13. Joey, +557 (#2043-->#1486)
  14. Reya, +548 (#1884-->#1336)
  15. Emberly, +538 (#1780-->#1242)
  16. Coralie, +531 (#1920-->#1389)
  17. Saoirse, +464 (#1442-->#978)
  18. Ophelia, +395 (#975-->#580)
  19. Hensley, +395 (#1798-->#1403)
  20. Darla, +379 (#1679-->#1300)
Oh, I love Arlette! And Arleth is a Spanish variant. Saoirse, CoralieOphelia, & Darla are lovely as well. 

Still too "out there"? Here are the names to really keep an eye on--the fastest risers in the Top 500:
  1. Avianna, +295 (#748-->#453)
  2. Aviana, +269 (#661-->#392)
  3. Remi, +205 (#500-->#295)
  4. Ariah, +202 (#512-->#310)
  5. Adaline, +193 (#364-->#171)
  6. Thea, +176 (#463-->#287)
  7. Saylor, +167 (#607-->#440)
  8. Remington, +163 (#621-->#458)
  9. Amara, +161 (#461-->#300)
  10. Margot, +159 (#592-->#433)
  11. Samara, +159 (#634-->#475)
  12. Ariyah, +156 (#607-->#451)
  13. Blake, +126 (#423-->#297)
  14. Leia, +100 (#421-->#321)
  15. Fernanda, +98 (#559-->#461)
  16. Evie, +94 (#512-->#418)
  17. Rowan, +92 (#331-->#239)
  18. Emersyn, +90 (#393-->#303)
  19. Freya, +87 (#417-->#330)
  20. Blakely, +84 (#354-->#270)
Only Adaline this year? Is Adeline/Adelyn/Adalyn finally slowing down, or did other spellings just get too popular to move up quickly? (I'm guessing the latter)
At least we have Leia, if not Rey. :)
