Answer 18

A surname can't really be old fashioned. But some have a strong link to an era in the past. Here are some super-wealthy families from the late 19th and early 20th century, authors from past eras, and literary names:

Vanderbilt, Hemingway, Carnegie, Gatsby, Hayes, Hearst, Copperfield, Fitzgerald, Rockefeller

But, if you're using the name for your own story, these might be too familiar. Consider making up a name that has a similar sound to a famous name that you like.
