24 beautiful vintage baby names we would love to see make a comeback

Gorgeous.

We totally get it: settling on a name for your little one can be tough. 

Whatever name you pick has to be popular, but not so popular that they will be sharing the name with half of their eventual class at school.

It has to be unique, but not too unique that they end up spelling it out for the rest of their lives.

And, understandably, you’d want it to sound perfect with your surname.

Oh, and there’s always the worry that – once you’ve settled on the perfect moniker – it will end up going out of fashion quickly.

For years, parents have been getting more and more creative when it comes to naming their children. Mostly thanks to the ever-growing list of sources of inspiration.

Their favourite Marvel movies; TV shows (like Game of Thrones); seasons; foods and hobbies have all been scoured in an effort to find that perfect moniker for their little one.

Sometimes, though, there’s nothing quite like the classics – right?

Here are 24 vintage baby names that we predict will make a comeback soon.
