Choosing a name for your child that is unique, current but not totally ridiculous can be difficult these days. Current trends, however, are showing that the trendiest names of 2016 are classic names from over a hundred years ago, or even older! While you might feel like you’re in a time warp when you look at the preschool check-in book, keep in mind as you choose your baby’s name that current parents are opting for classic names from the past over funky spellings and movie stars.
