Most Popular Baby Names of the 50s

Life in the United States, during the 1950's, was new and exciting. Returning soldiers and their families left the city for the suburbs where kids played in front yards and neighbors enjoyed Sunday barbecues. Elvis and I Love Lucy kept everyone entertained, the first McDonald\'s opened, Dr Seuss published The Cat in the Hat, Disneyland opened, and the tv remote control was invented. Things were soon to change as Castro became dictator in Cuba and Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus. There were also changes in the most popular baby names in the United States.
