You can Name the Baby anything you want but over half name it by these 100 in both lists: Top_100. Likewise variant pieces draw from about 100 choices more than half the time (popularity in the eye of the beholder). For convenience in comparison, educated guesswork can deliver specific match-ups: that #1 is Mary/Centaur(BN) about same-percentaged, #2 is John/Patricia/Camel, #3 Jennifer/Alfil, #5 William/Linda/Commoner, #10 Sarah/Cannon, #15 Donald/Champion(RN), #100 Howard/Kathy/Padwar of Jetan, and so on in between.
If we liberally cut piece-types off at 2000 and CVs at about 9000 from all sources, including some subvariants, and assuming about one new type (not rnbkqp) per CV, it means 2%, or 180, CVs use Centaur/Sarah and 90 CVs use Camel/Patricia. Centaur and Camel may be low a bit from more expected 3% and 2% respectively, but most others being employed near 1%, or less, of the time make for good comparability between Babies and Fairy pieces. Remember half of CVs are on small 8x8 where #1 Centaur(BN) appears only rarely, and half again of the 64-square ones may have zero additional pieces. And more pertinently, there are many important specified pieces used only once or twice -- once per 9000 is about 0.01%. Most types will fall in the range 0.009% to 0.7% usage.
Beauty and eventual popularity can come about by developing formulaically: just see the 'Man & Beasts' project. For example, try compound of more frequently-used p-t and infrequently-used p-t. Noting "Howard" is #100 on the Boy's side, and William #5, there is (Commoner plus Padwar -- Padwar moves two steps diagonally allowing the bend). The compound is neat brand new type, and is fitting because William Howard Taft is USA President and Chief Justice. Taft is the ...er heaviest, well fattest USA Pres and Trump number three after Cleveland. In addition to the oldest ever Trump is third in ...weight.
What is Donald John
Trump's piece-type? See above that is (Camel plus Champion(RN)) already named "Carshall" (or Car-shell? or Car Shill?) by Gilman: Marshall+Camel.

Name_Game.
Alphanumerically, trump and truman are only off by one. Trump's butterfly in hope he'll do about-faces on Nature.
