Vintage baby names are growing in popularity this year with the trend emerging as one of the most popular of 2023.

According to BabyCenter’s Rebekah Wahlberg, vintage names are seeing a rise in popularity.

She told Fox News that old-fashioned names are very popular at the moment.

“Parents have been taking a lot of interest in names that were big many decades ago, especially for girls.”

“Vintage names are peppered throughout the current top 100 baby names — some hover toward the bottom and are just starting to regain ground, while others have already resolidified their place among the most popular names.”
