Help[Opinions] A name for each decade
Going from the 1890s-1990s what names, 1 boy and 1 girl, would you give a character living in that decade (for example 1960s-Pam & Rick).
I’m specifically looking for names that when you hear them you think ‘Oh, they must have been born in the *blank*’.
This is just for a little project that I’m working on purely for my own enjoyment but I would really appreciate your ideas!

just to clarify ...
How old are these characters? I mean, someone that's fifty years old in the sixties would likely have a different name from someone born in the sixties.

Good point…the characters are going to be around 16-21. For now I’m just trying to pick names that were popular in each decade and from there I’ll figure out which character gets which name (for example, Chester peaked in the late 10s/early 20s so maybe the character set in the 40s will be named that…idk, I’ll figure it out lol.
okay, I'll give it a try ...
