I went back a fair few pages and didn't see this posted, but if it has been I will gladly delete it.
I was reading on Wikipedia about Top Model and as I looked down the list, I saw some pretty ridiculous names.
Cycle 6 only just finished in Australia, and there are like 3 or 4 cycles after that I believe so some of these names I had seen on TV and some I hadn't. Anyhow I'll post a random bunch of the names:


Jenascia
Shandi
Camille
Heather
Magdalena
Jennipher
Mercedes
Yoanna
Kahlen
Brita
Lluvy [wtf]
Coryn
Jayla
Bre
Joanie
Wendy
CariDee
Melrose
Jaslene
Gina
Mollie-Sue
Leslie
Furonda
Saleisha
Chantal
Mila
Felicia
Jael
Ambreal
Jenah
Aimee

Thoughts?

Most of these are absolutely ridiculous.

Yeah, I was going to chime in that CariDee= white trash overload. I mean the name, not the person, never seen the person. But...ick.

One of my roommates just referred to CariDee as "Car Ride."

There was a real issue with the top two. Melrose? Fine name on its own (not my style, but not awful), but it bugged me once I knew that it was short for Melissa Rose.

I believe a looong time ago someone talked about naming their kid 'Lluvia' or something like that, because it was Spanish for 'rain' and she liked it. Maybe Lluvy is derived from the same word?

I love the name Mercedes so much. It's too bad it's a car.

I do like Magdalena. I went to school with a girl named Magdalena Kathrinka (her parents wanted to honor their German heritage).

Melrose is actually a combination of Melissa Rose because she "didn't need all that 'issa' stuff," and I do quote.

OMG I hated he so bad! She was all "Melissa Rose is so country. I'm Melrose". That wasn't a direct quote, but pretty darn close. OMG I STILL WANT TO GIVE HER SMACKINGS.

Hey There,

You answered a question I've been wanting to know for a while about Australia's NTM. But I thought you were on Cycle 4, no? The last winner I saw was Alice.

Any idea of good YouTube uploaders for the season? My usual favorites haven't gotten there yet.

Sorry for the off-topic response.

It's funny to me that you didn't include Naima.

She was a winner and she had a mohawk.

I like Camille, Heather, and Wendy. Gina, Leslie, Mercedes, and Felicia are okay, but not my style. The rest are awful.

Really like:
Mila
Kahlen
Magdalena

I kinda like Jenascia.

Really dislike:
Furonda
Lluvy
Jael
Jennipher (because of the spelling)

Most of the others are so-so. And Melrose is fake, that girl's names was Melissa Rose and she just combined the two.

I was thinking about posting a list of ANTM names the other day! I like Mila, Kahlen, Ambreal, and Bianca (even though you didn't post the name Bianca).

I like these names;
Camille
Magdalena
Bre
Joanie
Jaslene
Gina
Mila
Jael
Aimee

I have watched every season and realized that they seemed to find people with especially unique names.

I personally think that if Tyra, or whoever chooses this thing, can't decide which girl to pick to move on from tryouts onto the actual show, she/they pick the girl with the most unique name:]

I like Heather, Wendy, and Leslie.

As for the actual models and not the names, I liked Kahlen, Jayla, Joanie, CariDee, Mollie-Sue, and Jael. I hated Melrose and Jaslene.
