Feb. 12th, 2009 04:44 pmAre there any normal (so not U'Neeq, Cre8tyve, etc) names that you just don't like for one reason or another?
For me, names that might generally be considered close to my 'style' of names that I don't like are:
William (but I like Liam)
Joshua
Jacob
Jackson
Mitchell
Jordan (for either sex)
Madison
Addison (but I like it on a boy!)
Ashleigh
Lauren
Sarah
and almost anything ending in -lyn
Reason? Many of these are names of kids I have taught. Usually, a bad kid will tarnish a decent name for me. It's annoying.
