Names we hate...

[velkoria.livejournal.com]

What iff you had to make a list of your top 5 no no names? Names you wouldn't use no matter if it were your SO's dead grandma's or grandpa's name. What would the list be?

I'll exclude ayden names from my list but fo the record... I dislike them all but Aiden but I've said that before with it being a real name, with an  origin and stuff.

Top 'no' names for girls in no particular order:

Nevaeh
Ramona
Ebonie
Ivory
Dominique
Monique

Top 'no' name for boys in no particular order:

Jackson
Ashley
Joe
Bob (I do like Robert though... just not Bob as a name...)
Israel (too... location for me)

I LOVE Julia. Agree with you on Gladys, though...*cringe*

[lovetokate.livejournal.com]

I, too, am way over Isabella. I always preferred Isabelle anyway. The "a" on the end makes it a bit more pretentious, IMHO.

Theodosia. My mother is still bitter that my father didn't let her name me that and has tried to convince me to use it for a future daughter. No.

Neveah/Nevaeh. Either way, it sucks.

The "son" names (they can be lumped together) as in Addison/Madison/et al

Janelle. Just the sound grates my nerves.

Gertrude. Some names should be left alone. Forever.


Boys:

Dwayne. It just doesn't sound right.

Jordan. I've known too many.

Andrew. I hate both Andy and Drew.

Jackson/Jaxon Just name your son Jack for the love of money!

Jayden/Jaden/however they spell it now. Just ugh.

[0o-faerie.livejournal.com]

For me it'd be something like...

GIRLS
1. Beulah
2. Braelyn
3. Trinity
4. Fern
5. Belinda

BOYS
1. Hamish
2. Norbert
3. Norman
4. Gilbert
5. Brayden/Kenneth (I can't decide which I hate more)

[velkoria.livejournal.com]

your no no names list rocks xD

[ribcage-diagram.livejournal.com]

Nevaeh
Judith
-ayden names
Jordan
Scott
Kenneth
Maggie
Barbara
Tina
Gina
Any gemstone name
Jackson
Anything with apostrophes

[sxylilwitch.livejournal.com]

Girls:
1. Nevaeh - JUST NO
2. Anna/Anne/Annie/Annette - my Grandma's name is Anna, so we have about 5000 different variations of the name in my family...Deanne, Joanne, etc. MiL's name is Annette, and it's too close to the Ann craze!
3. Katherine (or any variation of it) - Way too common in this area
4. Isabella (and variations) - Especially after the Twilight craze UGH
5. Madison (and variations) - It's kinda sad, I used to love this name as a kid because of the movie Splash D:

Boys:
1. Robert - Don't like the nicknames
2. Richard - Don't like it or the nicknames!
3. Michael - I can't even pinpoint what I don't like about it
4. Fred - My biological father's name that conjures up images of the devil
5. Jordan - Every Jordan I've ever met is annoying

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna stick with names that are more common that I hate, as there are so many.

Kaylee
Riley
Anything with a "lyn" or "lin" Brooklyn, Braelyn, Maelyn even just Kaitlyn
Emily and all variants (thank god I didn't name my child Emmeline!)
Abigail (gail just sounds so ugly to me)

Mason
Jayden in particular, but hate them all
Ethan
Liam
Parker

[beepandetch.livejournal.com]

Girls:
Kaylin/Kaylee (actually anything that ends in -lin/lynn and -lee/leigh)
Aubrey (although I love Audrey)
Annika
Peyton
Asia
Kaia
Pretty much all the 'teen mother' names.

Boys:
All 'Ayden' names
Bruce
Chuck

Aww, but Ramona is pretty! :) I agree with all of your other ones though. Except I don't mind Ashley on a guy. Don't like it-- it's too Aussie beach dude for me. But don't hate it either.

Mine:

Wyatt
Keith (unfortunately this is the name of my husband's late grandfather... and he has no middle name!)
Carson
Earl
Jeremy

Peyton
Angelica
Destiny
Miranda
Camille

I'd have Nevaeh too, but I don't even consider it to be a name. Same with Kaylee and Jayden et al.

[penguiny7.livejournal.com]

I love Fern and Hamish! :)

[penguiny7.livejournal.com]

Ugh! Dwayne! And Dwight too! UGH. I should add an addendum to my list to include those.

[penguiny7.livejournal.com]

I don't believe I've ever encountered anyone who hated Briony. I really like it.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Cooper
Jackson
Sebastian
Ethan
Jayden

Addison
Peyton
Kaylee
Rory
Marley

Those are just the ones I could think of off the top of my head... there are a lot of others I'd never use.

[yukonsally]

any gender neutral name
any noun name (you should not name a child after an inanimate object!)
any made up name

Logan
Amanda

[lind-saay.livejournal.com]

I find nothing about it appealing.

[velkoria.livejournal.com]

I actually don't like it either... sounds more like an illness than a name.

[sunshinefleur.livejournal.com]

Rachel
Ashley
Tiffany
Brittany
Jennifer
Abigail (beautiful name, bad association)

Brandon
Eric
Justin
Jason
Mark
Bradley (another bad association, which is unfortunate)
