I don't doubt that these names are the most prevalent in "blue areas" of the country. But I'm not sure it follows that there is strong political affinity for democrat platform.

I seriously doubt the parents of young Muhammad / Yusef / Moshe are out there voting for transgender story hour.

I don't remember the exact breakdown... voters with children are generally more conservative than childless voters

They tend to be more religious as well

The one exception could be single or divorced women with children

We chose an interesting name for a son: Alastair-Ruyki Kenko-Duncan. I guess this doesn’t fit in any of these categories. I must say, the name is totally, and I mean TOTALLY unique.

Yep, among others. There are a lot of Duncans around.

Where I'm from in Venezuela, most people go crazy trying to find a name for their baby. And the result is the most incredible combinations you can imagine—crazy combinations.

A few observations from my end:

Most Democrat boy names are Hispanic/ethnic boy names while Democrat girl names are not. Why could that be? Do Latino families want their boys to continue their family legacy while girls get integrated faster? Do I interpret too much into this?
Democrat girl names end on "a" while Republican girl names often end on "y" or "eigh". Isn't that curious?
The Republican boy names sound all really lower class coded to me. The Democrat boy names too. The girl names do not. Please tell me if you feel the same or if you disagree.
