This study delves into the correlation between the popularity of the first name Killian and the votes garnered by the Libertarian Presidential candidate in the state of Nebraska. Drawing data from the US Social Security Administration and MIT Election Data and Science Lab, Harvard Dataverse, we embarked on a statistical voyage to unravel the enigmatic relationship between nomenclature and political leaning.

[[INTRODUCTION]]
The relationship between individual names and political affiliations has long been a subject of curiosity and amusement. While it may seem as arbitrary as a roll of the dice, there is evidence that the name one bears may, to some degree, shape one's political inclinations. As the saying goes, "What's in a name? A potential bias towards a certain political party, it seems!"
The state of Nebraska, known for its amber fields and enduring cornhuskers, also serves as an intriguing microcosm for this investigation. The research at hand seeks to unpack the remarkable correlation between the increasing popularity of the first name Killian and the choice of Nebraskans to vote for the Libertarian Presidential candidate. This connection has led us to dub it the "Killian-Libertarian Vitality Paradox": a conundrum full of enigmatic charm, akin to unraveling the plot of a political thriller with a twist of cosmic irony.
It's worth noting that the name Killian, derived from the Irish Gaelic "Cillian," means "church" or "monastery," making it quite apt for a state known for its strong sense of community and resilience. As we seek to discern the role of this name in shaping political leanings, one can't help but wonder if there's a congregation of voters rallying around the moniker, forming a political monastery of sorts. Call it "electoral spirituality"!

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The academic exploration of the link between names and political affiliations has been a subject of considerable interest. Smith et al. (2015) delved into the psychological significance of names and their potential influence on individual behavior, while Doe and Jones (2018) provided an insightful analysis on the societal implications of nomenclature. However, our study takes a rather unconventional turn as we venture into the realm of electoral quirkiness and nomenclature caprice. It is a journey that promises to be both intellectually stimulating and, dare I say, pun-derful.
In "The Name Effect: How Your Moniker May Shape Your Destiny," the authors contend that individuals with certain names may be predisposed to specific sets of beliefs and behaviors, potentially extending to political views. This notion prompts one to ponder, "Do names have a say in the ballot 'cast'?" Sorry, I couldn't resist a little voting pun.
The relationship between names and political preferences is not to be taken lightly; it is a topic that beckons us to ponder the peculiarities of human cognition and social dynamics. As we navigate through the data landscape, we cannot overlook the potential influence of cultural and literary sources. Works such as "Freakonomics" by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, and "The Tipping Point" by Malcolm Gladwell offer thought-provoking insights into the unexpected and often irrational influences that shape human decision-making processes. Similarly, fictional narratives such as "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss and "Killian's Tide" by Susan Ee may provide allegorical parallels to our exploration, albeit with a fantastical twist.
One might even draw inspiration from "The Settlers of Catan," a board game where players vie for control over resources and territories, to apprehend the intricate interplay between name popularity and political inclinations. After all, in the game of politics, it seems that the state of Nebraska has become a vital "settler" in the realm of Libertarian preferences, with the name Killian serving as a seemingly auspicious resource.
As we traverse the intersection of nomenclature and electoral dynamics, it is imperative to maintain a sense of humor and levity. After all, navigating the labyrinth of cosmic irony and political monikers demands a fair share of dad jokes. So, why did the Killian supporter bring a ladder to the polling station? Well, they heard the elections had a high "Kili-an" count!
In conclusion, the scholarly pursuit of uncovering the correlation between the rising popularity of the name Killian and the conspicuous fondness for the Libertarian Party in Nebraska exemplifies a convergence of statistical analysis, political intrigue, and an unabashed penchant for a good pun. The "Killian-Libertarian Vitality Paradox" shall continue to perplex and amuse in equal measure as we persist in our endeavor to decode the cosmic symphony of nomenclature and electoral whimsy.

[[METHODOLOGY]]
To investigate the purported correlation between the prevalence of the name Killian and the electoral support for the Libertarian Presidential candidate in Nebraska, our research team applied an array of rigorous and quirky statistical methods. Firstly, we meticulously amassed data from the US Social Security Administration, spanning the years 1982 to 2020, to discern the fluctuating popularity of the first name Killian within the state of Nebraska. Surprisingly, this task involved neither séances nor summoning a statistical genie but rather involved mining through vast datasets with the diligence of a gold prospector seeking electoral nuggets of wisdom.
Once the data on the name Killian had been secured, our team extracted information from the MIT Election Data and Science Lab, Harvard Dataverse, to unravel the votes obtained by the Libertarian Presidential candidate in Nebraska during the same time frame. This extraction did not necessitate a political espionage operation but rather involved navigating the vast digital corridors of open-access datasets, reminding us that while data may be free, electoral choices are indeed priceless.
Applying a series of far-from-boring statistical analyses, we employed a combination of linear regression, chi-square tests, and time series modeling to pit these seemingly unrelated variables against each other. With such analytical zeal, one might say we were on the hunt for the voter's "Al-Killian-dra's Box" - that unassuming yet pivotal vessel that holds the key to unlocking electoral mysteries.
In our pursuit of data-driven enlightenment, we also ventured into the realm of geographic information systems (GIS) to map the dispersion of the name Killian across the counties of Nebraska, employing spatial autocorrelation and hot spot analysis to investigate potential clustering of Killian enthusiasts in the state. This method, while not involving actual topographical trekking, allowed us to visually discern the geographical distribution of the name and ponder if there were any "hot spots" of political affinity worthy of further exploration.
Furthermore, to ensure the robustness and reliability of our findings, we conducted sensitivity analyses and bootstrap resampling to evaluate the stability of the observed correlation between the name Killian's popularity and Libertarian voting trends. This involved repeated recalculations of statistical parameters, somewhat akin to checking if the Santa Fe trail leads to statistical significance or just a spaghetti western.
In summary, our methodology involved a precise blend of statistical acumen and a dash of whimsy, all in pursuit of unraveling the undeniable allure of the name Killian's influence on the political dance of democracy.

[[RESULTS]]
Upon analyzing the data collected from the US Social Security Administration and MIT Election Data and Science Lab, Harvard Dataverse, we found a striking correlation between the frequency of the first name Killian and the votes cast for the Libertarian Presidential candidate in the state of Nebraska. The correlation coefficient was calculated to be 0.9596995, with an r-squared value of 0.9210230, and a p-value less than 0.01. This high correlation suggests a strong relationship between the popularity of the name and the choice of political allegiance.
In Fig. 1, we illustrate the robust correlation between the frequency of the name Killian and the votes garnered by the Libertarian Presidential candidate in Nebraska over the years 1982 to 2020. The scatterplot demonstrates the clear and almost linear trend between these variables, leaving little doubt as to the strength of this notable association.
Now, it's safe to say that the name Killian has certainly made its mark in the political landscape of Nebraska, carving out a unique niche that seems to mirror the Libertarian leanings of the state's electorate. It's as if the name itself has become a rallying cry for the Libertarian cause, leading one to ponder whether Killian could be the "kill" switch for incumbent political preferences. But let's not jump to conclusions; after all, correlation does not imply causation – or in this case, causation does not "name-ply" correlation!
Our findings raise intriguing questions about the subtle influences that names may wield over political choices, and whether the rise in popularity of certain names could potentially sway the trajectory of state politics. It's as if the very utterance of the name has the power to evoke certain political sentiments, making one wonder if every "Killian" vote counts as an "electoral sermon."

The correlation coefficient was calculated to be 0.9596995, with an r-squared value of 0.9210230, and a p-value less than 0.01. This high correlation suggests a strong relationship between the popularity of the name and the choice of political allegiance.

Now, it's safe to say that the name Killian has certainly made its mark in the political landscape of Nebraska, carving out a unique niche that seems to mirror the Libertarian leanings of the state's electorate. It's as if the name itself has become a rallying cry for the Libertarian cause, leading one to ponder whether Killian could be the "kill" switch for incumbent political preferences. But let's not jump to conclusions; after all, correlation does not imply causation – or in this case, causation does not "name-ply" correlation!
Our findings raise intriguing questions about the subtle influences that names may wield over political choices, and whether the rise in popularity of certain names could potentially sway the trajectory of state politics.

[[DISCUSSION]]
The results of our study provide compelling evidence for the significant correlation between the popularity of the name Killian and the votes cast for the Libertarian Presidential candidate in Nebraska. The strikingly high correlation coefficient and low p-value offer robust support for the notion that there is a strong relationship between the frequency of the name Killian and the proclivity to support the Libertarian Party in this state. It seems that the name Killian has not only been making waves linguistically but politically, too. One might even say that it's become the "Killian joke" of Nebraska's political scene.
Upon reflection of prior research, the work of Smith et al. (2015) and Doe and Jones (2018) resonates with our findings, shedding light on the psychological implications of nomenclature and its potential influence on individual behavior. The voting pun undertaken in "The Name Effect: How Your Moniker May Shape Your Destiny" may have been made in jest, but our research affirms that there is substance to the idea that certain names can predispose individuals to specific beliefs and behaviors, extending to political views as well. It appears that the nuances of nomenclature extend beyond mere semantics to shape social and political inclinations, making it the "name" of the game, so to speak.
Our study also aligns with the work of Levitt and Dubner, as well as Gladwell, in exploring unforeseen and irrational influences on human decision-making processes. The unexpected correlation we've unearthed between the popularity of the name Killian and Libertarian proclivity in Nebraska stands as a testament to the unexpected and often whimsical forces that can shape political leaning. It's almost as if the state of Nebraska has become the "Settlers of Cat-killian," where the name has the potential to sway the electoral "tide."
It's evident that our findings support the contention made in the literature review that the rise in popularity of certain names could hold sway over the trajectory of state politics. In light of this, one cannot help but wonder if "Killian" votes indeed hold an "electoral sermon," influencing the political sentiments of the electorate through the mere mention of the name.
In all, our study attests to the remarkable confluence of nomenclature and political predilection, leaving us with ample food for thought and pun-derful anecdotes. As we grapple with the implications of these findings, it's clear that the cosmic symphony of nomenclature and electoral whimsy continues to play on, with the first name Killian taking center stage. After all, when it comes to political preferences in Nebraska, it seems that "Killian" is more than just a name – it's a Libertarian force to be reckoned with.

Killian's Popularity and the Libertarian Vitality: A Statewide Proximity in Nebraska
[[ABSTRACT]]
This study delves into the correlation between the popularity of the first name Killian and the votes garnered by the Libertarian Presidential candidate in the state of Nebraska. Drawing data from the US Social Security Administration and MIT Election Data and Science Lab, Harvard Dataverse, we embarked on a statistical voyage to unravel the enigmatic relationship between nomenclature and political leaning. Our findings demonstrate a remarkably high correlation coefficient of 0.9596995 and p < 0.01 from the years 1982 to 2020, compelling one to question whether it is mere serendipity or cosmic irony.
We uncovered an intriguing connection between the proliferation of the name Killian in Nebraska and the fondness for the Libertarian Party. It seems that as the popularity of the moniker rose, so did the inclination of Nebraskans to cast their votes in favor of the Libertarian Presidential candidate. One might even quip that the name Killian has been "killing it" in shaping political inclinations in the Cornhusker State. Alas, the confluence of nomenclature and electoral preferences continues to elude a clear causal explanation, leaving room for further speculation and, admittedly, a handful of dad jokes.
[[INTRDUCTION]]
The relationship between individual names and political affiliations has long been a subject of curiosity and amusement. While it may seem as arbitrary as a roll of the dice, there is evidence that the name one bears may, to some degree, shape one's political inclinations. As the saying goes, "What's in a name? A potential bias towards a certain political party, it seems!"
The state of Nebraska, known for its amber fields and enduring cornhuskers, also serves as an intriguing microcosm for this investigation. The research at hand seeks to unpack the remarkable correlation between the increasing popularity of the first name Killian and the choice of Nebraskans to vote for the Libertarian Presidential candidate. This connection has led us to dub it the "Killian-Libertarian Vitality Paradox": a conundrum full of enigmatic charm, akin to unraveling the plot of a political thriller with a twist of cosmic irony.
It's worth noting that the name Killian, derived from the Irish Gaelic "Cillian," means "church" or "monastery," making it quite apt for a state known for its strong sense of community and resilience. As we seek to discern the role of this name in shaping political leanings, one can't help but wonder if there's a congregation of voters rallying around the moniker, forming a political monastery of sorts. Call it "electoral spirituality"!

[[CONCLUSION]]
In conclusion, our study has unearthed a compelling correlation between the surging popularity of the first name Killian and the penchant for Nebraskans to cast their votes in favor of the Libertarian Presidential candidate. The robust correlation coefficient of 0.9596995 and p < 0.01 from 1982 to 2020 points to a remarkable relationship that can't simply be brushed off as a "kill"er coincidence. It's almost as if every time someone says the name Killian, a Libertarian ballot gets its wings – talk about a poli-"tick"-ling charm!
The findings not only shed light on the quirky intersection of nomenclature and political preferences but also beckon us to consider the potential impact of names on electoral behavior. It's a little like a "name-ifesto" of sorts, where the moniker becomes a flag-bearer for political leanings, urging voters to "Killian it" with their support for the Libertarian Party. Still, amidst the correlation, it's important to remember that causation can't be derived solely from a name; after all, as much as we wish it were true, one can't help but chuckle at the thought of a name having the power to dictate an entire state's voting choices.
While our study marks a significant stride in understanding the quirks of human behavior and its association with nomenclature, it also beckons us to put a pause on this line of research. As much as we would love to dive deeper into the "Killian-Libertarian" saga, it's time to bid adieu to this particular area of inquiry. After all, as far as names and politics go, perhaps we should leave room for the ever-elusive mystery and charm – or in this case, "charming name-stery"!

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.9210230 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 92.1% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Votes for the Libertarian Presidential candidate in Nebraska) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Popularity of the first name Killian) over the 10 years from 1982 through 2020.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 1.1E-5. 0.0000109916371162321050000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.96 in 0.0011% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 90,978 random variables You don't actually need 90 thousand variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 9 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 9 because we have two variables measured over a period of 10 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ 0.83, 0.99 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
