anotha one
same idea as the 1900s, 1910s, and 1920s versions of this thread that i made. these names are from the very bottom of the ssa census baby name lists from the 1930s. they’re weird old names that have fallen out of popularity or been completely forgotten, and i think they’re really cool so let’s start using them again!
the family is random and each birth year is the year i searched for each person’s namebank!

this one has definitely had the biggest change in naming trends from the first person to the last, so that was really neat! this has kinda become a passion project for me; it’s taught me a lot about names and history and sprung a lot of other research, and i think its really cool that some other ppl have liked reading and playing with these names too so thank yall who have enjoyed these threads with me (:
