The BBC has an article about how a name can affect someone throughout their life. One table shows the chance of attending Oxford with a given name, and a graph shows the downward trend of naming children one of the top 50 most popular names.

The only overlap is that Silence of the Lambs makes reference to a serial killer having an "abnormal" name, as the article states that psychiatric patients with unusual names tend to be more disturbed.
It does not reference the table. Your confusion could be due to the fact that I forgot or fucked up a closing italic tag, swallowing the rest of the post with italics which weren't meant to be. But now that you mention it, it could lead to methods of human fuzzing or forced association. Or I'm drunk.
