I think i've posted here in the last couple of days than i have since I joined =P
Anyway, are there certain names that you either used to like or that you still like but would never use because of a bad association?

I work in a school and a couple of my (ex) favourite names have been ruined:
Jake
Nathan
Elise

What are yours?

Eric
Becky/Rebecca
Danielle (2 out of my 3 least favorite people in the world have this name; that's a pretty sorry ratio. Doesn't even help that I adore one Danielle I know, with a record like that!)

Jack
Nicholas
Danielle
Erin
George
Brandon
Mark
John
James (I would consider using this one, except my uncle's name is Jim; I love my uncle [notice I didn't say like], but I would not, in a million years, name my child after him, and everyone would think that I had)

Anika I used to like. Until my lab partner from hell last semester, who happens to be named Anika. The name still gives me shivers.

Otherwise... thankfully for me, most people I've disliked already had names I disliked (or at least wasn't crazy about before meeting them).

Charles
David
Gavin -too close to Kevin, fiance's name.

Thankfully, I don't have too many names that I liked that had been ruined.

Also, Callie was ruined for me because of Grey's Anatomy.

Connor.
Abhorrent child. He's borderline IM, so I feel bad for disliking him so much, but it's completely ruined the name.
