Myrtle

Myrtle is a vintage name that brings a sense of nostalgia and botanical charm. Derived from the English language, it represents the evergreen shrub known for its fragrant white or pink flowers. Although its popularity peaked in the early 20th century, Myrtle saw a decline as more modern names took precedence. Still, it possesses a quaint appeal and ties to nature that some parents find endearing. Often associated with the literary character Myrtle Wilson from 'The Great Gatsby', this name is a delightful choice for those who appreciate its old-fashioned grace.
