Hello, Dane here.
Yes, the first link is correct, as this site is the real official statistical site of Denmark, collecting statistics about everything concerning Denmark, and they're the only ones collecting official name statistics, as we don't have any other specialized sites doing so here. Like that one in the US. I've already provided Mike with the official lists for last year.
The second is a site for new parents and such, like any sites like Nameberry, etc., so listings of popular names there can be different from the official, as they're mostly user generated.
So, I hope that clears up any other questions for you. :)
