  Top Baby Names | 20th Century | Boys | Girls | Meanings | Origins   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Boys’ names over the last century tended to bunch up around a few immensely popular names, while the girls’ names were distributed over a much greater variety of names.
Amazingly, five boys' names from the top dozen of the 20th Century - Michael, Daniel, Christopher, Joseph and William - are still in the top twelve today.
For more than 100 years, parents have been far more traditional in picking boys' names than for girls.--> We thought it would be fascinating to see a list of the most popular names of the last century, from 1900 to 1999.

 topics : garments and styles of boys clothing   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Little boys and girls were generally dressed alike in nearly identical dresses to their mothers until the boys were "breeched", usually at 4 to 6 years of age--although some boys were breached earlier and some later.
During the early period of children's clothes, the late 18th and early 19th Centuries, it was the boy who might wear long pants or pantaloons and the father knee breeches.
Decisions on a young boy's clothes were generally made by the mother with her son having little say in he matter.

 20th Century Boys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Urasawa wrote 20th Century Boys along with another popular title, Monster for 2 years (Monster ended in 2001).
20th Century Boys seems to have been inspired in parts of the story by the works of Stephen King, containing allusions to It and The Stand.
The story of 20th Century Boys is told in four different time arcs: the '60s and '70s, the late '90s, the year 2014, and 3FE, or the Third Year of the Friend Era.

 All-Reviews.com Music Review: 20th Century Boy: The Ultimate Collection by Marc Bolan & T Rex
The recent car commercial playing the "20th Century Boy" track hasn't hurt renewed interest in Bolan's catalog.
My favs are "20th Century Boy," "Jeepster," "Children of the Revolution," "Elemental Child," "Ride a White Swan,"and the incredible "Slider." Collections like this continue to give me further evidence that the 70's provided a cache of great music similar to that of the 60's.
If you have been a fan of this music you will be in rock 'n' roll rapture, if this is the first time you have been exposed you will become a fan straight away.

 boys' blouses
Boys by the 1920s, however, had begun to object to the term "blouse" as describing a childish garment.
Boys dressed in Fauntleroy suits or bodice kilts wore these frilly blouses rather than shirts.
A man or big boy's shirt tucks into the trousers, but a blouse has an elastic threaded through the waist or a tape, or a band which buttoned to the pants or kilt.

 Print The Top Ten Baby Names of the 20th Century - The Mother of All Baby Name Lists
This "best of the century" list, based on Social Security Card applications for births in the United States, determines and ranks the top 10 boys' names and the top 10 girls' names spanning the entire 20th century.
Plus, there are some fascinating trends revealed by the data, such as the top 10 boys' names accounting for nearly 35 million names over the century, while the top 10 girls' account for only about 15 million names, clearly demonstrating the huge variety of girls' names versus boys' names, going back to 1900.
Given the greater volatility over time of girls' names, it is not surprising to see that some superstars of the 20th Century, such as Linda, which ranks # 3 in the century, has fallen precipitously -- all the way to # 416 by 2005.

 20th Century Boys Delay - Anime News Network
Although Viz had never publicly announced any time frame for their release of 20th Century Boys, the title was solicited for a May release in the January issue of Previews.
However Urasawa is reported to have asked Viz to release 20th Century Boys after Monster, in the same order that they were released in Japan.
Comics.212.net reports that Urasawa made the request because his art had progressed from Monster to 20th Century Boys and he felt it would a "disservice" to his art if they were released out of order.
