    Default Most common person names in your country?

    In Latvia most common name for babies at this moment are:
    Roberts, Sofija, Gustavs, Alise, Markuss, Viktorija, Daniels, Marta

    Most latvian-baltic names are:
    Viesturs, Jānis, Valdis, Visvaldis, Dainis, Dzintars, Daina, Laima, Maija, Gunta

    I know dozens of Jānis, Artūrs, Kaspars, Linda, Laura. I guess those names were popular in 80s and 90s

    And Wilson.
    Antes de subir al cadalso, Juan de Padilla se dirigió a su camarada Juan Bravo con unas célebres palabras: "Señor Bravo: ayer era día de pelear como caballero...hoy es día de morir como cristiano". Ante esto, Juan Bravo pidió ser ejecutado antes que Padilla, "…para no ver la muerte de tan buen caballero". Horas más tarde, también fue ejecutado y decapitado el salmantino Francisco Maldonado.
