The top three names that sound successful: Elizabeth, Caroline, Helen and James, Richard, Michael.
The top three that sound attractive: Sophie, Rachel, Olivia and Ryan, James, Jack.
The top three names that sound luckiest: Lucy, Katie, Lisa and Jack, Chris, Ryan.
Names that make people sound unsuccessful: Ryan and Brian for the men and Lucy and Lisa for the women.
