This is so hard, because I can see into the future. Immediately I thought "
Helen!" But
Helen was already becoming old fashioned by the 50s, wasn't it?
If I was a time traveler enjoying some midcentury tourism, I'd pick
Helen,
Roberta,
Vivian,
Rosemary, Or
Veronica maybe?
If I was actually a person born in the 1930s, though, would I like those names??
My grandma always wished she could have named my aunt "
Roxanne" but she was talked out of it. So I'd name my 1950s baby.....
Roxanne Rita.
