100 Classic Girl Names | Young House Love

Share


It’s safe to say that we love traditional baby names (aka classic names or old-fashioned names). We named both of our kids after our grandparents – one on J’s side and one on mine. I recently heard names like that for baby girls being called “old lady names.” Not sure how I feel about that – but a timeworn and classic name just feels like it’s lovely and enduring. A friend of mine recently had a baby girl and it was fun to talk about all the names they were considering for her. And since I already shared a list of 100 classic boy names, I also loved compiling this list of my favorite classic old-fashioned baby girl names.

One interesting thing I learned when I was writing this post is that many of the top ten most popular names for girls in the USA in 2024 could definitely be considered classic. And wildly enough, they all end in A except for two!

  • #1: Olivia
  • #2: Emma
  • #3: Charlotte
  • #4: Amelia
  • #5: Sophia
  • #6: Mia
  • #7: Isabella
  • #8: Eva
  • #9: Evelyn
  • #10: Luna
