Help[Opinions] What name would you like to see a comeback?
What is an old/vintage name or an obscure name that's currently out of 1000 name charts would you like to see come back?

My favourite boys name is Cecil (sehs-el) and I would love for it to come back. I also love the nickname Midge (g).

Doris. I don't like it enough to use it, but I would like to come across a few little Doris's running around. Also Cynthia, Tonya, Kenneth, Kurt, Vaughn, Clinton, Jesse, Sally, Valerie, Ursula, Lisa, Laura, Dawn, Veronica, Sonia, Bridget, Bernadette, Paulina, Cheryl, Susannah, Robin (M), maybe Rusty,

I would guess that it's going to start making appearances again but not for another 10 or 20 years.

I feel like a lot of those names aren't very old/vintage yet.

I recently learned that Dana is no longer in the top 1000. It fell off a few years back. Dana is cute, I think it should come back!
Other names not in the top 1000 that I think need more attention:
Agatha
Agnes
Annette
Ariadne (I guess it had only a brief moment on the charts)
Bernice
Blanche
Carol
Charmaine
Claudia
Colleen
Clifford
Constance
Deanna
Darlene
Dierdre! Love this name
Dinah
Ok gosh a lot of names are on here that I really like, and I can't believe some of the names that have dropped off the charts! Like Candace and Christine, Cheryl, and Denise... I knew their moment had passed but I thought for sure they would be at the bottom somewhere.

Brenda - I think that the letter B needs more attention. It's been left out from being :cool: for years.

I love the name Brenda!

For me, it's Patricia. It's a name I personally love quite a bit, so I'd like to see it make a comeback.

I know an Ida! She's 8-9ish years old and it's so refreshing to hear a classic on such a young girl.

It's a lot harder to find boy names that have left the top 1000, haha. They're all so timeless!
