Recycling is all sorts of trendy these days, and we think there is no need to stop at clothing or furniture when there are so truly fabulous vintage names out there for your brand new babies too.

Maybe you have an amazing granny in your life that you want to pay homage to, or maybe you just love the idea of a name with a bit of an historical twist, either way, here are 11 really great old-lady names that we predict are all about to make a serious comeback. Edith So, so chic. Pearl A true gem if ever there was one. Evelyn Evelyn actually means “wished-for child,” which, you know, is all sorts of sweet. Ethel We love the sound of Ethel, as the matter of fact. Beatrice Who wouldn't want a little baby Bea?! Florence Call her Florrie for short! Ruth Or Ruthie, if you want something less serious. Margaret How sweet is little Maggie?! Dorothy We just can't even with this one. Hazel Quite popular these days, but still super-cute. Mabel It’s the next “Hazel.” We’re calling it.
