Seems like the names of our grandparents' generation are coming back in fashion but judging by some of the threads on here people have really strong opinions on the names that are lovely and those that really shouldn't be revived.

Which do you love and which do you hate? I'm a big fan of lots of them - Arthur, Violet, Percy - but I'm not so keen on some of the harder sounding names, like Ivy, Reg...

Don't think Henry has been suggested yet - I love it! Also second the suggestions of Seth, Arthur and Donald. My Dad's Donald so I'm a bit biased!

My gran was Nancy and I love that name but DP isn't keen.
