You think first names from 100 years ago are no longer up to date? We’ll show you that you were sorely mistaken.
Your first name usually accompanies you throughout your life. Some names are pretty unusual and unique. There are always new trends. For example, my first name was one of the most popular from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s.
Marie and Paul are the most popular names right now
In recent years had noisy Austrian statistics most newborn girls have almost classic first names: Marie, Emilia and Anna occupied the top three. It was no different with the boys. The most popular first names were Paul, Jakob and Maximilian.
But are they really that classic? What were the names of children who went to school around 1900? And are these first names really making a comeback? Questions to be answered here. And a little spoiler: Marie was the most common girl name back then.
