My workflow's a little longer than necessary, but it's only because I was trying to solve it as fast as possible. 😃 I did get stuck at the splitting genders part. Looks like there are some things that the cross tab tool can't do.

 

Nice challenge!

fun challenge and quite a heavy dataset... maybe I'll have a look at what obscure names are in use today 😄

Surprises me there are only 10 Top Female Names and 8 Top Male Names across 1880-2017.  Shows how common names are.

After I save the file and exit Alteryx the input file says 'not found'.  How can I save it so that I can come out and get back into the workflow without having to start over?
