Names are often used for silly characters like that in the first place because they are considered comically old-fashioned (Garfield, Kermit, Homer). But yeah, I like Elmo, and maybe it could have made a comeback (but won't while the character keeps it stuck in its comically old-fashioned phase). O ending names are popular now, but I think it sounded old-fashioned to people when it was chosen for the character because it was associated with names like Eldred, Elwood, Elmer.
