The name Michael, for example, first entered the list of most popular names in the 1940s, and quickly became the most popular boy's name in America. It held the number-one spot for four straight decades from the 1960s to the 1990s, slipped to number two in the 2000s, and fell completely off the list for the current decade.
Other names are experiencing a resurgence. Emma was one of the 10 most popular girl's names in the 1880s and 1890s, but it didn't crack the list again until more than 100 years later, when it became the 3rd-most popular name of the 2000s. The name continues to rise in popularity, and is currently the most popular name of the 2010s.
Some names prove to have serious staying power, like John, which made the top 10 for every decade from the 1880s to the 1980s, and William, which made the cut from the 1880s to the 1970s, as well as the 2000s and the 2010s.
