If you are choosing a name or just like to follow trends, you know: the old one is the new modern
Have you noticed how some things from the past be successful in the present? It can be one, a musical style of the 80s or even that childhood calligraphy notebook that has now become a planner. But there is a trend that has been drawing the attention of many parents (and curious on duty): the old names that are coming back with everything in 2025!
This wave of rescuing names with old roots has been gaining hearts because it unites the best of both worlds: tradition and originality. The charm is precisely to take names with deep meanings, many of them with centuries of history, and bring back with new energy, light spelling and updated pronunciation.
Check out the names that have gained new face and are dominating the birth records:
