THIS.
This was my fave name in 7th grade because a little girl that lives across the street from me is named that and I had never heard it before. LOL.

Tara was my favorite name ever. Then I realized how overused it was.

I used to want Aidan, and still do if I wind up with two boys. But I realllly am in lovelovelove with Gabriel. Also, I always thought I'd name my little girl Olivia but my husband hates it so we've settled on Harleigh for a girl.

Gabriel has been my favorite name forever, and I love Aidan, but sad that it became so popular. I could use it as a middle name.

I used to like the names Jack, Chris and Ronnie but then dated guys with those names so I hate them now. lol

When I was a kid I liked names I think are really stupid now like Casper and Jessamine. I was also obsessed with the name Jennifer and demanded that I be called Jennifer because I hated my name that people can't spell or pronounce and got made fun of for(Mariah)

ok... yes I will admit to it.. I wanted to name a daughter of mine Leeloo... yes, I did and now I am glad to be a little older and think 'what the f... was I thinking?'

I also liked Chandler for a boy and also, Hamlet... I don't lol at Chandler but it will forever be that guy from Friends and well Hamlet is still awesome but anyone that knows Shakespeare knows that that would be such a sad thing to do to a child xD *still has it on the guilty pleasure list*

Oh and... Lestast *hides*

I also wrote a story about a set of twins named Denim and Lace. wtf.

I loved Justin and Peter when I was in 2nd grade. I couldn't imagine using them now though, even though neither are awful.

And then I liked Geoffrey. I discovered Geoff from Tony Hawk 64 and loving Geoff Rowley... and then I worked at Toys R Us and Geoffrey the giraffe.. I don't even really love how it sounds, I really just like how Geoff looks.

I still sort of like Liam, but that already seems kind of dated to me and I couldn't imagine still liking it even 4 years from now.


I don't think there were any girls names I can't stand. I chose Elisa Rebecca and Catherine Danielle when I was in 1st grade, and neither of those are really bad. I kind of wish I loved some really terrible things.. maybe I did and I just chose to erase them from my memory upon realizing how awful they were.

I'm the same way with Geoffrey. I like the way it looks, but I don't like the sound, and I absolutely loathe Jeffery/Jeffrey. Plus, I knew a guy in eighth grade with that name and our classmates thought it was soooooo funny to call him "Gee-off," so, yeah, that name's definitely not in the running for me.

Carson. I thought it was the best name ever when I was about 14. I also used to think that Ocean was a beautiful name for a girl, too, so...

Peyton. Haha. Two years ago, it was definitely in my top 5. I don't really hate it now, but I definitely don't like it anymore either. It has become boring and trendy.

Back before they were popular: Isabella, Sophia, Jaden.
Quinn (m). My number one boys name used to be Cameron.

I don't hate these names now, it's just that they either became popular or I don't think they would "fit" [my child] very well.

hmm i can't think of many...
I liked Ocianna, which I think I made up... pronouned Oh-shi-anna.
I also liked Heather for a while.
I went through a place name thing where I wanted to name all my kids places, like Montana, Canyon, Rome, Paris, Dallas (which is still a guilt pleasure name)

When I was a young'un (12-ish?) I made a list of names I liked, and while I can't remember too many of them now, I do remember thinking that kre8iv spellings were awesome. Why name your kid Jenny when she could be Dzheni? Maybe a silent 7 would be cool. Dz7eni. Yeah!

I also used to take common names and change one letter or syllable to make them ~*unique*~. The only one I can think of right now is Trista from Christa. I think that one is the least offensive to my current sensibilities.

Needless to say, I'm glad I've held off on having a child for these 16 years (and counting).

When I was little I really liked the names Kelly & Stephanie. Not anymore. I used to really like the name Ava too, before I learned it was ~trendy~ a couple of years ago. Oh! And I used to like the names Starla & Destina, hahah. And Jasmine. eugh
