Looking for a baby name that draws on hope, grit, renewal, and tradition? Our list of 40s baby names might be just what you’re searching for. The 1940s were a defining moment in American history. The United States had climbed out of the Great Depression and joined World War II. While some 16 million Americans were serving overseas in the war, women took on new roles in the workforce. Postwar America is remembered as a time of prosperity as the GI Bill allowed a large number of new families to join the middle class. For many Americans, there was a feeling of renewed hope in the air, and after the war was over, a period of economic posterity—that would increase even more in the 1950s—was born.

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.
