[Facts] Most common Lithuanian names
What are the most popular names in Lithuania for girls born in the 90's? I've been trying to research them for a novel I'm writing, but I don't understand Lithuanian.

I found this site which seems to have numbers of births for each name going back quite some time:

Of course you have to come up with candidates names first, but when you have them you can check in the graph whether they were indeed popular in the 90's or not.The website of the Statistical department used to have name statistics, but now I cannot find them again. Anyway, here is the website:

Thanks for everything! I decided on Živilė for the older sister and Aušrinė for the younger sister.

No data for the 90's, unfortunately. Here are some more recent data (the site itself is in german, but pretty self-explaining): http://www.beliebte-vornamen.de/1805-litauische.htm
