HelpWhich 5 vintage, classic or “outdated” baby names for boys and girls do you think should make a comeback? Why?
As the title says, I’m curious! List five for each gender if you wish.

The "why" is pretty boring. Its either because I like them or wouldn't mind seeing them.
Flint - I like nature/gemstone names. Its
Archibald - Archie reached the charts so why not the full form?
Oswald - Same category as Desmond and Edward, just sounds a bit older.
Ozzie - Its cute and coincides with Oswald.
Ollie - Its cute and coincides with Oliver.
Dorothea - If Dorothy can come back, so can this.
Felice - Fresher than Felicia, which people are tired of.
Noel - It's always been popular for boys, but dropped for girls. Noelle is also popular, so why not Noel for girls?
Euphemia - I used to dislike it but now it has a special place in my heart. I don't really like its nicknames, but Effie is tolerable. The strong-willed Dreamgirls character comes to mind. That's a positive association for me.
Casimira - Beautiful and rare, but not something I'm likely use in real life. So, it wouldn't hurt me to see it on other people's daughters/
