Re: edited to add ...
It's probably because names like Edith and Judith are dated to a much earlier period that they are coming around again as fashionable, whereas names like Stephanie and Jessica are dated to a much more recent period - the 80s and 90s. So they seem much more out of fashion. Give them about 50 years, and I'm sure they'll become less dated again. :)

I can't wait until the nursing homes are full of Stephanies and Jessicas and the younger generation is all, "Ooh, what beautiful, old-fashioned names!"
