13 vintage baby names that we would love to see make a comebackAdd us as a preferred source on Google »
We feel you, parents-to-be. Finding the perfect baby name can be pretty darn daunting, and often, there is a fine line between a name that is unique and a name that will make your tot the subject of classroom ridicule. Which is why we think vintage names are pretty much the perfect compromise. Why? Because no-one can say these aren't actually names, and yet, in recent years, they haven't been so widely used that your child will run the risk of having to share his moniker with half his class in school. So while these names might not be topping the trend charts right now, we think they are all sorts of worthy of a comeback: 1. Cordelia For your baby girl. 2. Lowell For your baby boy. 3. Margot For your baby girl. 4. Arthur For your baby boy. 5. Aurelia For your baby girl. 6. Clement For your baby boy. 7. Mabel For your baby girl. 8. Leonard For your baby boy. 9. Clara For your baby girl. 10. Otis For your baby boy. 11. Selma For your baby girl. 12. Samuel For your baby boy. 13. Billie For your baby girl.
