These 20 Classic, elegant baby names are making a comeback

These 20 Classic, elegant baby names are making a comeback

These elegant baby names have been locked up in the vaults for too long! Check out the whole list and see why they're making a big comeback!

Recently we shared Nameberry‘s list of the 200 most popular baby names for boys and girls so far this year. While the list of 200 names for boys and girls offered a wide array of viable options for your soon-to-be son or daughter, there still remains a handful of names for your baby that you may be overlooking!

In fact, sometimes the best place to look for a better future is the past. What I’m trying to say is that if you’re still debating over what name to give your child when the big day arrives, why not test out some names that time, for the most part, has forgotten. These 20 retro names are making a noteworthy comeback…and for good reason: they’re fantastic baby names for boys and for girls.
