One reason I love old-fashioned names is the thought of renewal. Like an old house being restored, I love to see names from the past being rediscovered. With that in mind, what do you think of the following names and can you see them coming back into popularity (or at least not laughed at when you suggest them to others):
AgathaAilsaBessBlanche CoraCornelia (nn
Nell?)
GlynisEdithEdwinaElsaEnidEugeniaFrederica / Fredricka
HesterImeldaJeanJoanMurielMyraOlympiaReginaRenataSibylUrsulaWilhelmina ("willa + mina")
Winifred
Heck. If
Hazel and
Tallulah can catch on, I figure some of these on my list have a chance. Does anyone else?
