Summary/Abstract: Name instead of being the second. The names of Ferenc, György, Péter, and Miklós are listed on all the three popularity scales, with different places only. The name of László needs to be highlighted in particular, as there are as many as 11 László is indicated on the list, although it was a very rare name in other sectors of the population at that time. As a matter of fact, this still very common and popular male name only became fashionable in Hungary in the 18th century.
