[Opinions] Re: new feature
Nifty!Please add these to the Advanced Search on the Browse Names page too!A wish list ... I wonder if it's possible to ...
- show (either on my PNL page, or on each name's own page) how many public PNLs contain a name or have had it added in the past five or so years?
- search by more than one impression (ex. wholesome AND strange AND natural)?
- exclude unisex names from searches using a gender criterion?
- The gender impression ends up being weighted really heavily when searching for similarly-rated names (from the name's rating page). Can there be an option to find similarly-rated names, without considering the gender impression?- mirfak

Added to the advanced search page, thanks for reminding me.

There's this page, but it only shows the top names...
http://www.behindthename.com/stat/The information is available, it would just be a matter of finding a nice way to display it.

Just choose "is all of" instead of "is" from the drop-down menu next to the impressions.

From the gender section of the search, choose "is not" and then choose "unisex".

I've been wanting to add an advanced search to the rating section so you can enter a target rating and get names returned. I think that might do what you're thinking (sort of).
