They didn't call it the Roaring '20s for nothing. In the 1920s, speakeasies were hot and flappers broke out of the conventional molds for women. The fashions were iconic (and are still reminisced about in fashions today). And the names? Well, they were pretty and perfect. Think Grace, Marilyn and Norma... But what were the hot names of the time? According to the S.S.A., these baby names were most popular in the 1920s.
