Audrey Hepburn may have been star of the moment in her heyday, but her name was already twenty years out of style. Audrey was in the top 100 in the twenties and thirties (giving it vintage charm today!), then fell out of favor for the rest of the century. A decade after Hepburn passed away in 1993, Audrey’s back in favor; it returned to the top 100 in 2003. Audrey retains its classic vibe – despite its newfound popularity – and is a great pick if you can’t stand nicknames.
