Maude
German, “battle-mighty”
Euphoria star Maude Apatow, daughter of filmmaker Judd Apatow and actress Leslie Mann, was born on December 15, 1997. Maude is an old-fashioned girl name that was highly popular in the late 19th century, peaking at 20 on the US Top 1000 in 1882, but it dropped off the list in 1950 and hasn’t returned since. For that reason, Maude is one of the few names that’s both familiar and unusual: it’s on the list of Nameberry’s favorite vintage names and best unique girl names under 50 births.




Great info! Maude sits in that sweet space of being old, modern, and steady all at once. I think it feels very aligned with the current move towards quieter, more enduring names.
