Old Fashioned English Baby Names For Girls

There are so many beautiful old fashioned English baby names for girls but they have become so popular recently it’s hard to find a lovely old fashioned name that’s really unique.

But luckily there are some truly stunning old fashioned English girl’s names that have been hiding away for ages and really are rare and ripe for rediscovery.

So what’s the big secret you ask? How come these names haven’t become super popular if they’re so lovely?

Well the thing is, most really old fashioned English girl’s names disappeared way, way back in 1066 when the Normans invaded and everyone suddenly adopted French names. It turns out all those lovely old fashioned names like Alice and Lucy and Sophie aren’t really English at all. They’re French. Who knew?

So, if you want a genuinely old fashioned English girl’s name for your baby then check out this big list of unbelievably beautiful old baby names I have got for you here that go back to Saxon times.

You’ll know some of these old English baby names as they became popular with the Victorians but some of the most beautiful of these names are long forgotten and will be truly unique.

Do check them out and let me know which you like best.
