it’s been a while since i’ve been on nameberry so i thought i’d come back with another one of these threads!! i’ve already made a 1900s, 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s version so if you like this one go check those out. this has been a bit of a fun history & name trend learning project for me and i’m excited to get back into it! big changes are happening in the mid 1900s!!

to be honest the 1940s are not my naming cup of tea so it was cool to sift thru the bottom of the popularity list and find names that i actually did end up liking! i hope u guys like them too (: i’m excited to see how things change as we get closer to modern day!
