I agree with you, jj: [name]LOVE[/name] the name [name]Annabel[/name] and also hoping it doesn’t get too popular.

Lots of vintage names have “caught on” in popularity now, and do not seem so old any more, or have a fresh sound.
Some names however still sound very vintage and are not overused.
[name]MAUD[/name] is one of these names. It has a great pedigree and history, and while it is one of those names I used to chuckle about as a child and think “how dreadful to be called [name]Maud[/name]”, I now love it.
[name]THORA[/name] is another one.
And [name]WINIFRED[/name].
Anyone like these?

I do like the name [name]Thora[/name]. [name]Maud[/name] and [name]Winnifred[/name], not so much .
I just love [name]Maude[/name]! I would definitely use it, though probably as a mn. I wouldn’t get too excited about [name]Thora[/name]. It is okay. [name]Winifred[/name]- I get put off by the ‘fred’ part at the end, although [name]Winnie[/name] is sweet.
I would use [name]Maud[/name] or [name]Maude[/name] as a middle name.
