I think Edith has the biggest chance of coming back- The nn Edie is so spunky. I could see Agnes and Agatha having some use but I don't think they will make a huge comeback. I haven't see any of these on a child. I did meet a little Esther the other day though- very sweet.

I'd love all of them and would love to see any of them on a baby, but haven't yet. I think Agatha and Edith would come back before Agnes. That one might seem a little too old ladyish for a lot of people. When my mom found out I liked that name, she begged me never to name my daughter that. I didn't plan on it, but apparently she thinks it's terrible. *shrug* Aggie and Edie are definitely cute nicknames though, which I think is what will make them most appealing.

I've heard of a baby Edith, not the others. It seems likely they'll make a comeback at some point, like Emma and Ella did.

I've heard of a baby called Agatha.

I haven't seen them on a baby yet, but I'd love to.

I haven't come across any baby girls with these names, but I do take a bit of a liking to Agnes.

I love Agatha and Edith. Both are on my list.

Agnes is cool. I've never fallen for her but I appericate her and would love to see her used.

---

I like Edith, really like Agatha and I adore Agnes.

---

I'm not sure if they'll come back or not...they're very handsome names though. They're not the cutesy names that are extremely popular, but they might be some common yuppie names--all I know is that somehow, whether as a first name or a middle name, I'm going to use Agnes.

---

I've seen Agatha and Agnes on young girls, and I think I've seen Edith in some BAs. But I haven't actually seen these on a baby girl today.

Agnes was the name of a cool teenager on Gossip Girl- and of a popular model/London "It" Girl - so it might get a pass.

---

Edith might become popular thanks to the resurrection of Edie Sedgwick (and her style) in fashion. Or not. Probably just "Edie". =)

---

Can't say for Agatha.

---

I like all of these names, but I doubt they'll make a huge comeback. Ever.

I think out of the three, Edith is most likely to make a comeback. The other two both have strong associations with images of old women, while Edith hasn't been affected by that. Also, "Edie" is a common nickname for Edith, and that isn't old-fashioned at all.

---

For Agatha and Agnes... I don't think they'll come back. I have seen a baby Agatha recently, though.

I haven't heard of them on a real child, but I don't run into many of them anyway.

---

Agatha (Aggie) was the name of the youngest child in "Nanny McPhee." So I hope it's coming back. :-)

Agatha I could see making a comeback, especially among upper class parents and/or yuppies.
Agnes is tougher. I love it but the old-lady image really seems to cling to it. The only Agnes I've seen is in a BA from Canada.
I don't think Edith has ever really faded. It's always hovered in the Top 1000. I don't see it ever becoming really popular, but it could rise up into the 200s.
