What Are Some Rare Old-fashioned Names?

You can think of old-fashioned names 4ever. But personally I LOVE these:
Augusta**
Jane
Clara**
Lorena
Sarah
Beatrice
Cheyenne (My name, but I decided it was pretty old-fashioned myself. Whatever you think)
Faith**
Hope**
Grace
Charity (names like this were common in the early 1800s. Remember** & Patience were also popular)
For men
John
Joseph (variation-Yosef/Josef)
Marcus** (Greek/Romanian
Augustus (Greek. Great-nephew of Julius Ceasar)
Charles
Adam
Benjamen
Ray (Raymond/Rhame)
Eugene
Samuel
James
Edward (very popular, although the twilight books)
Ethan (may or may not have been popular. I just like it and it sounds very very old-fashioned but yet modern. A good combo if you ask me.)
I love these & wouldn't mind seeing them in a book. Although I do not know your intentions, so who am I to say anything about your intentions!
Happy name searching & hope I helped.

Try looking up your genealogy..... In my family we have Louisa, Sylvia, DeWitt, Julian, Zaner, Josiah, Samuel, Moses, Eugene and so forth....

Nathaniel, Jonah, Jared, Kenan, Cain, Seth, Moab, Ruben, are some of the lesser known names that are from the Bible for boys/men. Girls names that come from the Bible but are not well known include: Ada, Sheba, Bela, Sarai, Leah, Anah. Over the years some of the spellings have changed such as adding another "L" to Bela and dropping the "H" in Ahah and adding a "N" - Anna. There are others, of course, and some are very common in today's world: Adam, Joseph, Benjamin etc. Pick up your Bible and leaf through and you will see many names that are very distinct and rare.
