When my wife and I were picking names for our son earlier this year, I pulled down a list of the top 1,000 names from the social security office. I removed the top 20, and then we kept making passes removing more names until we were down to the winner.

I called it name whittling. It was surprisingly easy to whittle the list down to 50 names or so.
