contents In this work we propose anomalous versions of the holographic hard wall (HW) model to describe the spectra of light baryons of spin 1/2 and 3/2, and obtain their Regge trajectories. The anomalous contributions to the dimensions of the baryonic operators of logarithm form come from a semiclassical analysis of the AdS/CFT correspondence and were used recently for glueballs and light unflavoured mesons. Inspired by these results, we first propose an anomalous dimension of the form $Δ_{\rm anom.}=a\ln L +b$, where $a$ and $b$ are phenomenological constants to be adjusted numerically to better fit the experimental data of the PDG, and $L$ is the angular momentum of each baryonic state. Second, we discuss the case where the anomalous dimension also depends on the spin $S$ as $Δ_{\rm anom.}=a\ln (L+S+1/2) +b$, and fix the parameters $a$ and $b$ targeting PDG data. These two models, called AHW$_1$ and AHW$_2$, give better results for light baryon masses $(M)$ in comparison with the original HW model and show approximately linear Regge trajectories $(M^2\times L)$. We also consider a third anomalous HW model in which the dimension of the baryonic operator increases as $Δ_{\rm Lin.}=a L^c +b$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are constants adjusted to fit the light baryonic masses of PDG. Apart from compatible masses with PDG data, this case produces Regge trajectories that are asymptotically linear.
