I'm 48.
Vicky is the most popular name in our group of 12, then Yvonne.
There is a 5 year +- difference in age with the women I work with and we have several Elaine's and 3 viv's!
I'm the only one with my name both at work and amongst my mates.

Probably easiest to look at the top 20 baby names per year or decade.

I too am a 70s baby and therefore know lots of Sarahs, Jos, Steves, Andys.
