Old fashion boy names are coming back and coming back strong.

Have you noticed more Henry’s, George’s and Teddy’s? I have and I’m digging the trend!

But what about rare old-fashioned names for boys? Some more uncommon and unique vintage names to choose from?

That’s where this list comes into play!

I did some deep-diving research and discovered a treasure trove of hundreds of boy names from the past you’ve maybe never even heard of but that could be a great option for your little boy.

I’m all about vintage, find it to be my specialty, and believe you’ll find the perfect unique vintage name here!
