Vintageboy namesare back in a major way, combining traditional roots with the fresh style of names that haven't been heard for decades. While not all antique boy names or old male names make the fashion grade — sorry, Herbert and Melvin — new old choices such as Cassius and Leopold are being added to the roster all the time.
Along with August and Theodore, other vintage boy names in the US Top 200 include Abel, Arthur, Elias, Finn, Henry, Jasper, Miles, and Xavier. Rare retro names for baby boys on the rise include Linus, Caspian, Ned, and Ambrose.
A vintage name can give your son a good measure of history and heft to rely on. Antique names tend to come connected to many worthy namesakes along with heroes of literature and myth.
