While the boy names in this group are lacking in return-popularity (with the exceptions of the ever-present Anthony and Michael), there are several girl names that are going down the "100 year rule" track. Lucille, Clara, Esther, and Beatrice are all making comebacks. Emma is the biggest turn-around, staying close to the top after falling to #458 and then rising all the way to #1. Granted, besides Emma and Clara, the other names making a comeback are not close to the Top 100 yet, but their numbers are promising. The name I am keeping an eye on though is Edith. Edith reached its lowest rank at #842 in 2009, rose to #824 in 2010 and hit #771 in 2011. Is this just a blip or is it making a slow return? It will be fascinating to see if Edith keeps rising.

Are any of these names sticking out to you?
