Names that Peaked in 1993

Venezuelan telenovela actress Coraima Torres inspired many parents in the early 1990s to use her name. It is thought to be a blend of Cora + Roraima (a mountain on the border of Venezuela, Brazil, and Guyana).

Kalene is one of those names that doesn't really exist as an official name in any culture but that is at the same time widely used and relates to many other names. You may think of it as a variation of the Polish botanical name Kalina, or the Hawaiian Kalena, or of the Hebrew Kayla in all its variations which may include Kayley, Cailey, and so on.
