If you like 'old-lady-chic' or 'grandpa-cool' names then you may find this interesting

If like me you are (still) looking for inspiration....

This US online resource gives inspiring lists of top names of selected decades going back to the 1880's, the further back you go the more british sounding the names are.

Hope it helps someone, any other resources of use please post!

Thanks.

ooohh,thanks!

I used that or something similar when picking a name for DD. Interesting how male and female names used to be so much more interchangeable.

I was thinking I didn't come under the 'grandpa-cool' names but had had a look anyway and my 3 boys are all on the list and DS1 and DS2 are in the top 10.

Ooh I am loving this, thanks!
