Go Back In Time With TheseOld-Fashioned Baby Names

Over the years, it has become increasingly common for new parents to choose unique names for their babies. Some moms and dads opt for an unusual spelling of a popular name, or will select a name from another country or culture. In some cases they will name their children after objects or places, or make up a new name altogether.

If your naming style is a little more conventional, you might be leaning toward an old-fashioned name. Monikers like John, Emma, James, Grace, and William have always been popular, if somewhat overused. To find a traditional name that is still fairly uncommon, all you have to do is look back in time.

There are numerous names that were trendy 80 or 100 years ago that came to be thought of as old-fashioned. Because they spent such a long time being out-of-style, these names are now considered “classically vintage.” Check out these old-fashioned baby names that are making a comeback.
