Top 39 baby names from 1880s that could make a comeback with parents

Baby names fall in and out of fashion more often than dress styles, and names that were hugely popular just 20 years ago may already seem quite rare and old-fashioned to the ears of 2022 parents. Now a self-professed 'name nerd' has come forward with a list of 39 baby names from the 1880s, all of which look set to make a comeback.

These names were in the top 200 most popular back in the 1880s, favoured by numerous excited parents-to-be before seeing a notable dip. However, it's believed it won't be long until some of these name choices are once again called out across playgrounds.
