The name 'Kendra'

[Catlady (Rita Prince Winston)]

No: HPFGUIDX 179352

Which I think is a very pretty name, but I wonder when it was first
used by Muggles. I suspect it was not used by Muggles until after
Albus's Muggle-born mother was born and named Kendra. 

During my search, I found sites that told me that the origin of this
name is Welsh, Gaelic, Norse, and Anglo-Saxon. I suspect they don't
actually know.

I found this site <http://www.baby-girl-names.org/k/kendra.htm> that
says, according to Social Security records, the first year that Kendra
was one of the 1000 most common girl name given in USA was in 1946.
However, it says there have been 78,126 American girls named Kendra in
the last 125 years ("The last 125 years refers to 1880 through 2004;
last year refers to 2004") and 77,347 in the last 50 years, which I
calculate is 779 American girls were named Kendra between 1880 and
1954. My arithmetic of their numbers indicates that there were 779
American girls named Kendra between 1946 and 1954, which suggests that
the name was never used in USA before 1946. (My name, Rita, was vastly
more popular, given to 279,993 babies between 1880 and 2004, and to
6,016 girls the year I was born.)
