What are some old-timey names that you think should make a comeback?
By old-timey names, I mean ones that you don't typically associate with anyone alive or younger than like 70.
Examples being:
- Burl
- Mildred
- Herbert
- Agnes
- Evelyn (not as rare at the others, but getting there)
I've always liked the name "Opal" but I've only ever known two in my life. I was like 10-12 at the time, and they were both pushing 90.

Evelyn as a man’s name, if you want to be really old school.

My great grandfather's name was Hilary. My nan wasn't entirely impressed when I mention it was a girls name as a kid xD
