The Names that Arrived all at Once look
In 1977, 1,117 American girls were named Kizzy https://nobodynamed.com/name/Kizzy/ .
The year before, the name did not appear in the national baby-name data ***at all***.
Then *Roots* aired.
Kizzy was the daughter played by Leslie https://nobodynamed.com/name/Leslie/ Uggams in *Roots*, one of the largest television events in American history. The name did not climb. It arrived.
That is the idea behind ***Debut of the Year***: for every year, find **the boy name and girl name with the largest count in their first appearance on the national list**.
