I am looking for old-fashioned female names like Patience, Constance, Prudence, Charity, Humility, Remember, and Oceanus. They don't have to be virtues, just names that you would see pilgrims with, or names like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Remember is an ancestor of mine that was on the Mayflower and Humility was another passenger on the Mayflower.

I don't know if this is what you are looking for. I tried to think of traditional names that are cute and have class.

Abigail
Ainsley (usually as a boy's name, but I like it as female)
Alma
Arabella
Calla
Finley
Luella
Lydia
Novella (or Nova, for short)
Norah
Phoebe
Rosemary
Selma
These names probably aren'ts as old-fashioned as you are looking for, but they've all been around for so long they've virtually fallen off the planet. I think they're pretty - names from the Victorian/edwardian era.
Very pretty.

I don't think Remember is a name or Humility. They are words, not names and if they are they aren't old fashioned. Like the first person put Faith, Hope, & Grace are also old fashioned.

My grandmother's names were all old fashioned. Almina, Evelyn, Bernice, and Althea. I personally like the name Avalyn, but I don't know if that's old fashioned.

I have a cousin named Constance and I don't think she will ever forgive her parents for naming her that.
Don't forget, when your kid gets in school and starts being around other kids, they can be mean.
