About 1940s names

Names from the 1940s have a recognisable sound because the decade sat between two naming eras. The most common given names for babies born in the 1940s were James, Robert, John, William and Richard for boys and Mary, Linda, Barbara, Patricia and Carol for girls, but the adults of the decade, the soldiers, riveters and radio announcers, carried names from the 1910s and 1920s: Harold, Walter, Eugene, Clarence, Vernon, Dorothy, Mildred, Evelyn, Thelma and Gladys. A realistic 1940s cast mixes both layers, so a young GI named Jimmy Lee writes home to a mother named Hattie.

Surnames reflect the real demographic mix of 1940s America. Old-stock English and Scots-Irish names like Whitaker, Pruitt and Caldwell sit next to Irish (Gallagher, Sheehan), Italian (Caruso, Santoro), Polish (Kowalski, Wojcik), German and Jewish (Schneider, Kaplan), Scandinavian (Haugen, Lindqvist), Mexican-American (Montoya, Trujillo) and Japanese- and Chinese-American (Nakamura, Fong) families, all of whom were part of the wartime story. Cajun, Greek, Armenian, Finnish, Czech and British home-front names round out the list. Double first names such as Betty Lou, Mary Ellen and Bobby Joe were everywhere, as were formal middle initials on anything official.

Use these names for WWII fiction, a grandparent's backstory, swing-era characters, vintage advertising mock-ups or historical tabletop games. Pick an older-sounding first name for anyone born before 1925.

How to choose 1940s names

  • Age the name to the birth year, not the scene: a 40-year-old in 1944 was born in 1904 and is more likely an Elmer or Bertha than a Gary or Linda, which were baby names of the decade.
  • For military characters, use the formal version on paperwork (Robert E. Tolliver) and a nickname in dialogue (Bob, Bobby, Red, Junior); 1940s men were rarely called by their full first name among friends.
  • Double names like Peggy Sue, Mary Jo and Billy Ray read strongly Southern or rural; keep them for farm-town and home-front characters, and give big-city characters single names with immigrant surnames.
  • Match surname to setting: a Chicago factory floor in 1943 would be heavy on Polish, Italian and Irish names, while a California farm town might mix Mexican-American and Japanese-American families.
  • If a generated name sounds like a real celebrity of the era, swap one half; the list avoids famous full names, but the period's most popular names can collide by chance.

Frequently asked questions

What were the most popular names in the 1940s?

According to U.S. Social Security records the top boys' names of the 1940s were James, Robert, John, William, Richard, David, Charles, Thomas, Michael and Ronald. The top girls' names were Mary, Linda, Barbara, Patricia, Carol, Sandra, Nancy, Sharon, Judith and Susan. Linda famously overtook Mary late in the decade after the 1946 song.

Are these names accurate for WWII characters?

Yes. The list includes both the names of children born in the 1940s and the older names carried by the adults of the era (Harold, Walter, Dorothy, Mildred), plus the surname mix of wartime America. For a soldier in 1943, choose a first name from the older layer since he would have been born around 1915 to 1925.

Can I use these 1940s names for genealogy or family history writing?

They work well as placeholder or composite names in family-history fiction, but they are not records of real people. Any match with a real individual is coincidental; for actual research use census and Social Security indexes.

Do 1940s names differ between the United States and Britain?

Somewhat. British names of the decade leaned on Margaret, Patricia, Jean, Maureen, Sheila, John, David, Peter, Brian and Michael, with surnames that were far less mixed than American ones. The list has a British home-front set (Brian Hargreaves, Beryl Entwistle) and many of the plainer names fit either country, but pick the Italian, Polish and Japanese surnames for American settings specifically.
