Near extinct baby names you should try

Baby names trends change year on year. Try some of these nearly extinct names and see if you could resurrect them!

Baby names that are nearly dead and gone

Baby name trends are so interesting. There are a number of names that are now classed as extinct or nearly extinct. This basically means that there's less than 3 babies a year registered with these names in the UK. We have pulled together these lists as the group is ALWAYS asking for baby name ideas! I think we must have thousands of suggestions - but it made us think, are any of these near extinct names ever suggested?


We want to apologise in advance to any Donna's, Jean's or Trevor's out there - we really hope this does not cause you any distress.



Intrigued? You might be on the list! Or, you may well see the lists and think,

"Oh, I know LOADS of Debbie's!"


But ask yourself, how many BABY Debbie's do you know??


Why not take a look and see if any are worth reinstating. You never know, you could start a NEW baby name trend!
