Old fashioned names you isn’t think will make a come back?

[Hippopotas]

Inspired by my watching of White Christmas earlier I’m interested in names people don’t think will make a come back.

My list so far
Edna
Bob
Doris
Vera
Algernon

I was born late 60s. Janet was the name of a teacher or woman at the post office. Not a child

I've only known one seventies Janet. Jeanettes I knew a good few more.

Joanne, Pauline/ Paula, Lynne, Lorraine, Elaine, Susan, Susan and Susan are what I remember!

I'm wondering if all the people who knew loads of 70s-born Janets were in Scotland?

No Janets at my school in the Midlands, but there were quite a few Janes. I get the feeling Jane has never been popular in Scotland, so maybe Janet replaced it up there?

DD knows one seventies Janet (who calls herself Jay) she is the only one. It must be regional.

Lots of these names eg Daphne, Margaret, Joan, Doris , Nora etc are back.
It's the Terry, Trevor, Doreen, Pam generation that haven't quite but past experience would suggest they soon will

Ethel
Angela
Tracey

Angela sounds so pretty imo

whereas Ethel doesn't!

Alma, Wilma.

Angela is nice and Adele.

Angela is lovely but angie which would happen is hideous

Susan
Louise
Robert
Patrick

All probably due a revival too

I've got the thread wrong sorry you wanted ones which won't! 😳

Beulah
Hepzibah
Shelley

Jezebel likely won't return

My old bosses neice is Dulcie, she’s 6!

Surely these names wont be back (tho my granny could never understand the popularity of Laura - she insisted it was an old lady name!)
Percy
Dwayne
Desmond
Eugene
Fanny
Olive
Pauline

I know a Josie and Daphe. Both little ones.

Actually BouncingBelle I have seen Olive suggested loads of times on baby naming threads. It is popular with hipster types I believe, and thought of as a fresher alternative to Olivia. Can't stand Olive as a name myself, Olives belong in jars!

Have also seen Percy suggested. I find it ridiculous, but I've definitely seen it. Also Eugene is occasionally suggested, but I don't mind that.

I am scared to confess that if I had had another girl we were going to name her Persephone but call her Percy day to day!

Paula
Joanna
Julie
Catherine
Carol
Katrina
Natasha

Sidney
Steven
Alan
Richard
Ken
Simon
Mark

David Tennant's three children are called Olive, Wilfred and Doris...

Bit of a clash with their half brother’s name.

Yup. I thought that too...
