Help with Name List

General Name Discussion
1

I have been working on my top names for boys and girls. I have 5 names for girls and 7 names for boys. I would love to have 10 of each. My naming style is more old fashioned. When looking for my top names I tend to look at names from 1880.

  1. [name]Clara[/name]

  2. [name]Maude[/name]

  3. [name]Iris[/name]

  4. [name]Olive[/name]

  5. [name]Hazel[/name]

  6. [name]Willa[/name]

  7. [name]Eleanor[/name]

  8. [name]Amelia[/name]

  9. [name]Charlotte[/name]

  10. [name]Margot[/name]

  11. [name]Beatrice[/name]

  12. [name]Lucille[/name]

  13. [name]Henry[/name]

  14. [name]Oliver[/name]

  15. [name]Rafferty[/name]

  16. [name]Oscar[/name]

  17. [name]Silas[/name]

  18. [name]Harrison[/name]

  19. [name]Charles[/name]

  20. [name]Jude[/name]

  21. [name]Arthur[/name]

  22. [name]Jack[/name]

  23. [name]Felix[/name]

  24. [name]Theodore[/name]

Any suggestions on names that fit my style? Any comments on my current list?
