200 Old-Fashioned Baby Girl Names – Timeless and Vintage

Old-fashioned baby girl names are making a remarkable return.

These names, once considered dated or reserved for grandmothers, are now being loved for their elegance, history, and charm.

What was once tucked away in family trees is now found on birth certificates, nursery signs, and classroom registers.

Much of this renewed interest comes from a desire for names that feel timeless. While modern names can be trendy, vintage names offer familiarity and warmth.

They’re often simple, classic, and tied to strong family legacies or cultural icons.

Many parents also love the fact that these names often carry a story — passed down through generations or rooted in literary, royal, or historical tradition.

As naming trends come full circle, these names are now firmly back in style — not as throwbacks, but as fresh choices for a new generation.

Whether passed down from great-grandmothers or revived from early 20th-century records, these names offer a touch of nostalgia. They suit parents who want something meaningful, enduring, and stylish — with a gentle nod to the past.
