Looking for vintage and quirky un-used names...?

[skateblinder]

Hi, I am looking for some names (both genders) that I guess could be classified as a vintage quirky style. Names along the lines of Lydia, Claudia, Agatha, Ephraim, Giles, Gethin...

Any suggestions?

My great grandmothers name was Delphine. I always thought it was pretty. I liked the nickname Delphi too.

Nadine is also pretty. If you are going for a stronger, 20's type name i also think Arden is pretty.

My great-grandmothers name was Delphina. I also agree with Arden, very pretty
