Grandparens: Eva/James and Carrie/Raymond
Parents: Ruth and William
Kids: Rachel and Daniel
Ruth definitely sounds old-fashioned to me. I don't think I've known anyone else with that name.
Eva is an older one also but recently a family friend named her daughter that. And just today, I came across a woman in her 40's or so with that name.

William & Jessie and Frederick & Alice were my grandparents. Maternal grandparents only had a first name while my paternal grandparents had two middle names. My kids were named for their grandparents so have kind of unique Greek first names.

Maternal grandparents: Ward Murray (went by Murray) & Frieda Marie. My mother, myself and DD all have the middle name Marie.
Paternal grandparents: Elton & Willie. Her identical twin was named Lillie.
My parents were Harvey and Patricia (Pat).
DD has an old Southern name that was not very popular when she was born, but hit the top 50 within 10 years.

Nick & Olga. Lawrence & Audrey.
Names were so common and families so big in Olga's family they had Nick, Bill, Ann (more kids than this) and brother in laws Nick and Bill and SIL Ann. So they always called the family members Brother Nick etc so they could keep them straight.
