If you read this post, I promised to create a list of vintage baby boy names. The old fashioned baby girl names list was a hit, so I am making good of that promise for my boy moms (and dads).
If you haven’t seen my list of old-fashioned baby girl names that are totally in style in 2020, you can find it here.

The thing about vintage names is that they are so easy to remember and everyone knows how to pronounce them correctly. So if you hate it when people can’t spell or pronounce a name right, these are the best for yah.
Also, if you like a little simplicity and want names that will never go out of style, vintage baby boy names are a perfect choice.
When selecting the names for this list, I went for names that are not complicated and don’t have any fancy spelling.
When it comes to old-fashioned baby names, I feel like they are so likable because they are familiar. The simplicity and familiarity are what makes these names so special and timeless.

Fun fact: Did you know that William, James and Oliver made it to the top 5 baby names in the US in 2018? Yeap, according to the Social Security, they were number 3,4, and 5 respectively.
Too bad the 2019 most popular baby names list hasn’t been released yet due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Beauty of Old Fashioned Baby Names
Because they are timeless names, they make other people feel comfortable, and more relaxed when they hear the name. And when you tell someone your name is Paul, they most certainly will smile because it is so easy to remember.
The other thing I have found really interesting with baby names in 2020 is that some people are moving away from all the “fancy” baby boy names and leaning more and more towards the classic sounds. And I kinda like that.
If you would much rather prefer the unique and rare baby boy names, no judgment here. I have a huge list that you can find some name inspiration from and even download the printable version.
