Lots of the older names were biblical and I love them, but a "Hilda" or "Mathilda" doesn't do it for me.

Exactly! Like your original example, Taualumna-- it would just be cruel to name a kid now Edna, or for that matter Gertrude, Ethel, etc. A name like Adelaide is very pretty, though! I wouldn't mind naming my child an older (and probably less-often-used) name if it was one I liked.
