These are all names that I think deserve a comeback in the USA, some of them are already popular in the UK, which I’ve commented on. It’s interesting the compare the difference in two countries- I think the UK has a few popular names that’d still be considered old fashioned in the US!

Caspar (gradually going up in the UK)
Cecil
Clarence
Edmund
Edna
Elaine (though it looks like it is beginning to revive!)
Ellen
Ethel
Flora (this one absolutely shocked me when I saw how low it’s popularity in the USA is- not unpopular in the UK)
Frances (M and F)
Francis (M and F)
Harold
Harry (so popular in the UK, I think its long deserved a revival in the USA)
Helen
Hilda
Inez
Irene
Leonard
Lionel (may be making it’s comeback?)
Margery
Marion (M and F)
Minnie
Nancy (popular in the UK)
Stanley
Velma
Winifred (also going up quite a lot in the UK)
