Rare 1930s Names for Baby Girls

Unusual 1930s girl names

Are you expecting a little bundle in pink and looking for baby name inspiration? If you're a retro mom (or dad) who loves all things vintage, including baby names from times gone by, our list of unusual girl names from the 1930s could be a good place to start your search.

To be included on this list, names had to meet the following criteria: have more entries in the U.S. Social Security Administration's baby name database for the 1930s than any other decade in recorded baby name history; have at least 1,000 entries in total from 1930 through 1939; and finally, they had to be outside the 1930s' Top 100 Most Popular Girl Names as those wouldn't really qualify as 'unusual'.

So grab that vintage Parker pen of yours and some paper, and see if there are any retro gems that might deserve a spot on your own baby name list!
