One of the most popular names for girls at the turn of the 20th century, old-fashioned Hazel virtually disappeared by 1970. But its retro grace has made it a new favorite, and it reached a pinnacle of celebrity cool when Julia Roberts chose it for her baby girl. It's an especially appealing name for a girl with green-brown eyes.
