Associations

My husband and I had a lot of trouble naming our daughter, because we played word association with a lot of names. He'd say "Lydia" and I said, "eyelids!" My friend said, "Nyla." DH said, "Nylon string!"

What are some of your word associations that go with names? Especially the bad/funny ones that would be such an overpowering association that it would prevent you from naming a kid that.

yeah, it honestly kills me. why not just name her "misery?" that has a nice ring.

Seriously, if people want to go for a romantic, Shakespearean name, there are plenty of strong female characters to name a girl after.
