A few months ago I wrote a post all about my favorite vintage baby girl names, and I promised that I would follow up with a post for boys. I’m a girl of of my word, and here you have 50+ Favorite Vintage Baby Boy Names!
I love love old-fashioned, vintage-style names, and I’ve used them for my own children. I’ve gathered a list of my very favorites–a few of them have become more popular over the years, others have remained popular for more than a century, and then there are some that are perfect if you’re looking for a more unusual name.

I’m surprised Jared was not on the list. My son is named after my father who is 78 and the name Jared was used in his family for generations.
