Claire spent the first 43 years of the 1900s in the top 300 before fading away, her decline accelerating in the 1960s.   But then -- boom! -- in 1973 she jumped up 132 places on the baby name chart.  She is currently spending her 23rd year in the top 100, where she peaked at #40 in 2016.  In 1974, it was the 2nd most popular girl's name in the UK.
