I think Rosemary and Dorothy are lovely names.

Jeremy, Derek, Nigel, Geoffrey

I'm a nursery nurse and have looked after babies with a few of these names.... Dorothy, Edith, Daphne, several Arthur's. Also an Enid.

Myrtle
Marlene
Gaynor
Bertha
Brenda
Ruth

Herbert

Some of the names given I think are rather nice.

My choices:

Fanny
Dorcas

Gubnait

Gladys, Phyllis, Sheila

Tracy / Tracey
Maxine
Tina
Derek

Me and oh are joanne and kevin cant see them coming back any time soon

I had five elderly aunts. Gertrude, Bettina, Mona, Violet and Constance, all long dead.

I guess my grandmother had a sense of humour.

Dean, Darren, Gary
Sharon, Tracey, Paula

At some point 70's names have to come back though - Claire, Louise, Helen, Joanne, Chris, Michael, Stephen (just going by most popular names when I was at school in the 80's/90's)

What do you reckon the turnaround gap is, 80-100 years or so?

Loving all these but can't believe there are baby Percy's about! Cute in some ways, but a moody teen called Percy?!
Cuthbert, lol!
So many of these names were the norm when I was at school in 1970's/early 80's. I was in love with a boy called Brian at primary school!

And

Jeremy

Gubnait

Is that autocorrect?

I know a young Derek. He's probably around 4 now, I think.

Can't see Brenda making the top 10 any time soon!

Hepzibah is my "if only I were braver" baby name. I'd call her Zizi for short.

Madein1995 Arthur is currently 14th in top 100 names - already made a comeback

Samantha
Sharon
Trac(e)y
Lorraine
Natalie (I love it though)
Julie
Deirdre
Kevin
Sean
Elaine
Brian
Heathcliffe

Moira will always be around as long as The Scotch are.

Agatha and Maude are already back.

Re:
Dorothy
Margaret
Vicky

All of them are current. It's Victoria on the BC and Maggie/Dottie as a nn, but all still used.

Alan is popular in Eastern Europe, so there's still babies in the UK being named that. Likewise a few of the other names.

Beryl, Basil, Neville, Walter, Horace.

Rodger

Karen
Sharon
Amanda

Russell
Mark
Clive
