Old Man Names for Baby Girls

Blame it on Sidney. This name, which conjures up images of thick glasses, a snowfall of dandruff on shoulders, and plaid polyester pants pulled up to the sternum, sounds (strangely enough) nothing less than charming, nothing short of cool when applied to a little girl. And so too can the other geezer names here.

The only geezer names for girls currently in the US Top 1000 are Monroe and Remy, the latter of which is also stylish among baby boys. Other vintage masculine names that are rising for girls include Ira, Lyle, Ollie, Percy, Perry, Theo, Wallace, and Winslow.

Caution: Some of these names should not be bestowed on a boy. The world is not yet ready for another generation of male Seymours and Sheldons, although keep in mind that among the hottest boys' names in the UK now are Stanley and Chester.
