Moses's era

Timeless names that go with any sibling
These names have been used steadily for a hundred years, so they sit comfortably next to a name from any era, Moses included.
Girls: Elizabeth, Lydia, Cecilia, Julia, Nina, Carmen. Boys: Samuel, Anthony, Wesley, Vincent, Calvin, Victor.
How these were chosen
Each suggestion's share of US babies has followed a curve close to Moses's since 1880, and its recent number of babies is within about twelve times Moses's, so the names are in the same league. Names starting with the same letter as Moses or with the same ending are left out, so the names go together without matching. Spellings of Moses itself are excluded.
