What boys names do you consider slighty old man-ish, fusty choices.
ie: oscar, gus, roscoe etc.
are these becoming cute again??

absolutely!
the previous poster mentioned Lewis, which is the #1 boys' name in Scotland for 2004. Archie, Angus, Ross, Hector, Arthur, Fergus, Alistair, Tobias, Rufus, Gordon,Barnaby, Russell, Fraser and Hugh have all come up in birth announcements in Canada and the UK in the last few months-not sure if that's exactly what you're looking for, but they seem like "fusty" older names to me.
fusty's a brilliant word, by the way.
-Sisi
The older, the better these days.
Some are fussy, some are stiff, IMO.
Fussy- Theodore, Anthony, Oliver, Russell, Louis, Stuart, Winston, Arthur, Chester, Timothy, Nathaniel, Perry, Silas, Gideon, Lamar, Charles
Stiff- Walter, Richard, Orville, Rupert, Lemuel, Edward,
Old but cute- Hugh, Warren, Jed, Leland, Phillip, Preston, Bryant, Ross, Leander, Everett, Lachlan, George, Anton
