Looking for old fashioned girls and boys names that aren’t too common. We like old school traditional names but I know this is very ‘trendy’ atm so don’t want them to be too common (happy with top 50/100 but not top 20) TIA

My daughter’s name has made an appearance :) I like Ada...can it be short for anything? I find it too short for a stand alone name.
I like Edmund and Jasper was on our list first time around. I find boys names really hard!
