What are some old-timey names that you think should make a comeback?
What are some old-timey names that you think should make a comeback?
By old-timey names, I mean ones that you don't typically associate with anyone alive or younger than like 70.
Examples being:
- Burl
- Mildred
- Herbert
- Agnes
- Evelyn (not as rare at the others, but getting there)
I've always liked the name "Opal" but I've only ever known two in my life. I was like 10-12 at the time, and they were both pushing 90.

I must be in a weird spot because I know 3 different Evelyns under the age of 8.
Yeah, I noted that one as the oddball. Based on replies here, it's definitely a regional difference. In my area, it's all but extinct under the age of 60.
It's definitely just those kids and super old folks, I don't really know any in-between
