Are you a Brooks Brothers button-down kind of guy?  Do you like your Thanksgiving turkey served on grandmother’s china with monogrammed table linens?   Are you longing for a Silver Cross pram to take your new baby boy for a constitutional in the park?

If so, perhaps you’d like to consider one of the four boys’ names that have never been out of the Top 20 most popular names given to newborns in the US over the past century.

Care to hazard a guess?

Michael doesn’t make the list, nor does Alexander.  Edward and Robert have both dropped out of the Top 20.  But these fab four have never charted higher than #20:

• William
• James
• Joseph
• John 

There you have it.  Four choices at least as enduring as the works of Shakespeare or Brahms.
