Three names I've seen the past few days that had really made me cringe:

Kymberli
Emmaly
Queenie

Queenie... like in Black Adder? Haha.

Queenie reminds me of a particular "Bearenstein Bears" book about bullying. lol

I have never seen Emily butchered so badly.

Strangely, I also came across a Kymberli recently. I don't like the name in any form, but damn.

As an Emily, I am offended. I like Emma, I like Emily. But please pick one.

Honestly, Emma can easily be a nickname for Emily if you want it to be.

I hate that name almost as much as I hate American literature.

I actually kind of like Queenie, because it reminds me of the book by Michael Korda. It's probably best used on a pet, though. ;)

I hate that story too. Like, wow you quit... because of some bimbo you didn't know? Congrats sucka, you're unemployed now, but at least you can leave feeling superior. Dumbass.

I don't know why English class made us read that dumb story so much, as if it had any sort of poignance whatsoever

Because it was Updike and it was about adolescents.
