Mom: Judith (born 1936)
Dad: Lloyd (born 1931)

Both still with us.

Mom was Anna Pearl. Anna was her mother's name, so even as a kid went by Pearl. She dropped Anna when she became a U.S. citizen. She was born in 1923. My Granddaughter's middle name is Pearl, so the name lives on.

Dad was Adalbert. Born in 1910. My half brother is Adalbert, Junior. In both cases, Bert for short. So that name too lives on.

Mom - Susan (born 1946) and would have turned 75 this year (she passed away 5 years ago).

 

[cheryl.UK]

Phyllis and she's a sprightly 94

 

[Diznotyzed]

Beverly - born in 1932
My dad's middle name was Leonard - 1931, and he mostly went by Len

 

[TB'sWidow]

Mom was Mary born 1924 died at the young age of 58
Dad was Oliver born 1928 died at age 67

Mom is Vinita Joann, born in 1938.
Dad is Melvin William, born in 1934.

Those names aren’t coming back. Although, I don’t think “William” ever left.

I think there’s a Venita on Southern Charm on Bravo.

 

[Kitty 34]

This is such a sweet thread. Am loving some of the "older" names.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

My Mom's name was AnnaMarie. The family called her Re. She was born in 1947 and passed away far too young in 2006.
My Dad was Johnny. Not John; Johnny is what's on his birth certificate. He was born in 1942 and died at only 45 in 1987. I lost my parents before I should have in both cases, but cherish the time I had them.

 

[SC Minnie]

My mother is Emma. Growing up no one else I knew had that name. Now it's everywhere.
My dad was Mac. My great uncle had nicknames for everyone and my grandmother couldn't stand it. When my dad was born he was named a 'nickname' to keep the uncle from calling him something else.

My grandmother's names were Grace and Ruby

 

[dez1978]

Wanda. She would be 78 if she were still alive, died in 98. She was one of 9. There was an Ethel, Evon, Norma, Raymond, Gay, Christina, and Idk the other 2 names lol.

My dad was Gary, he'd have been 83, died in 1993. My oldest son's middle name Gary. There are no boys to carry on the last name, as my dad was an only child, so someone had to be a Gary lol

 

[JoanneAZ]

My mother was Doris born in the 1930s. My father was George, also born in the. 1930’s.

 

[Disney.Dreamin.Dee]

Mom- Carol, 1947, she's 74.
Dad- Daniel, 1943, he's 78.

A unique thing about them is they are both only children in the time of the baby boom.

 

[indimom]

Lorraine and John born in the 40s.

My grandma's name was Abbijane Pearl born in I think 1926.

 

[willowsnn3]

My mom was named Myrle
Born in 1923.

 

[Dan Murphy]

I never heard my mother's name anywhere else. She was born in 1941. Apparently there is at least one actress (born in 1968) with the same first name.

Probably Gillian.

That's all you're getting out of me.

 

[LSUmiss]

Alma and Gary. Both born in 1954. My dad passed away in 1988.

My dad was Gerard & was born in 1954 & passed away in 2017 & I thought that was young . Mom is Patricia & born in 1955.

 

[Forevermarypoppins]

Tom would have been 87 this year
Rosie is 83
