Research is weird science,
or we're just dumb

Sinrod Marketing Group's international opinion panel
just completed a survey of 75,000 adults to determine
first names associated with intelligence. The
winners: Abigail, Alexis, Grace, Leah, Meryl and
Vanessa for women, and Alexander, David, John,
Kenneth, Samuel and Tim for men. The names most
associated with leadership were Ruth, Alexander,
Dwight and Lance. You can see the entire results of
the survey in
The New Baby Name Survey Book.
The fact that none of us at VOXUS have these names
kind of puts the validity of this research in
dispute.
