"Old" Names that Deserve a Comeback

I'm not talking names from the turn of the century, but names from the 70's, 80's and 90's that you think deserve a comeback.  What do you ladies think are some good names from the past 40 years that are not super "common" these days but should not be forgotten?

Re: "Old" Names that Deserve a Comeback

  • I have a soft spot for Jessica and Michaela, I consider them both to be 80's names, since most of the ones I know are my age.

  • Flower names are kind of popular, so I'll say Heather. Also, Amanda.

    For boys, I'm not sure. Maybe Adam? Boy name trends tend to not change as much as girl names, not including all of the aden/aiden/ayden type names.

  • I was all excited to express my love for Mabel.

    To answer your question I would have to say Rachel. It was a top contender for a FB friend and I was excited about it.

    I love Jennifer and nn Jenny!
  • I love the name Ellen but it just feels so dated, so that's my vote!

    Also ditto Chad- it was high on my list for DS2 but hubby said it was too dated.

    agreed! 

    I'd vote for David and Eldon. I think David peaked in the late 80s and Eldon in the 70s.
