My dh thinks I'm ghoulish because I like to browse the obits too. So many lovely names that should be brought back.

There are so many grea names, here. I might be easier to pick out the ones I don't like. But I'll concentrate instead on my favorites:

---

Bernadette
Betty
Margaret Ellen / Jean
Dorothy (I wonder if she was a 1930's baby)
Audrey
Roberta Mary
Moira
Angela
Mary
Elsie Grace (Elsie!)
Constance Joan (both Bennett actresses in one combo -- were they sisters?)
Elena
Edith
Immacolata (wow)
Ginger

---

Francis Ignatius
Lawrence
John
Angelo (I know a five year old Angelo who was adopted from the Philippines, with an American Korean mother and an American italian father. Great mixture. They look right at home with each other.)
Henry
James Michael
Alvin
William Martin (why isn't Martin more popular now?)
Graham
Frederick Thomas
James Carroll
Silvio
Owen John
Giovanni
Kenneth

OK, so that's practically the whole list. Sue me.
