Any other first name's that'd top as many sports in comparison "Mike" or "Michael"?

NBA - Michael Jordan
Boxing - Michael "Mike" Tyson
Track - Michael Johnson
MLB - Michael "Mike" Trout
NHL - Mike Modano
Racing - Michael Schumacher
Soccer - Michael Carrick
Swimmer - Michael Phelps
NFL - Michael Strahan

So is this about how popular the name Michael was between 1960-1990?
