Kendall, as used for a girl, was initially propelled up the popularity ladder by a soap opera character (Sarah Michelle Gellar as Kendall Hart in All My Children) but now is more closely associated with supermodel Kardashian sister Kendall Jenner. 

Jenner's beauty and fame has kept the popularity of her name afloat since she was born in the 1990s. She has also made her name more female. Nearly 1000 baby girls were named Kendall last year, compared with only 162 boys, compared with about 1500 girls and 750 years in 1995, the year she was born.
