    (oh i'd love a DS with the his middle name Leo)

    on your list i like Drusilla & Evangeline (would you believe my Mum just gave my DD yesterday a very old porcelain doll and her name is Evangeline) !!

    I think there's a site called Baby Names Wizard (or something) and it gives you some of the more popular names from certain years. It's a pretty good resource.

    I think go with names you like! I am a fan of older names too, but then as Audax says, most names have been made up at some stage!

    It's funny how we see names differently too - I don't see 'Apple' as a particularly modern name. I mean...apples have been around for some time now.
