Stigma names

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

What are some names that you like but you wouldn't use because they have a stigma behind them, or give people the wrong impression about you/your kids?

The only one that comes to mind for me right now is Adolf. I really like the name, but the whole Hitler thing is a little too obvious, and I wouldn't want to make people think I was a Nazi.

When I first started reading your sentence about Raphael, I thought you were going to say something about the painter or angel and thought to myself "But those aren't bad associations whatsoever!"

I'd use it.

See, those are the associations I have! And partly why I like it...I dunno. Mutant Turtles haven't quite knocked it off of the list, just bumped it down a few...
