The popularity of Rita is graphed here.  Let's take a look at daughter Marcia.


Marcia, a variant of 'Marsha', experienced her best years during the middle of the 20th century when she spent 13 years in the top 100 (1943-1955), peaking at #74 in 1951.   She entered a rapid and steep decline after 1980 and fell off the chart in 1994.
