The popularity of Dorothy is graphed here.  Let's take a look at Archie.


Archie peaked early in the 20th century, at #98 in 1907, which was followed by a long, slow decline that accelereated after 1970.  He disappeared from view after 1988.   

The Archie comic book series debuted in December 1941 and doesn't seem to have had an impact on the name's popularity.
