So I was looking at my younger brother's high school yearbook (he is now a sophomore in h.s.) last night because I was bored and came across a few interesting names.

There was a girl named Starrleen. Because of that I feel that I need to mention that I graduated with a girl named Starrdai.

Another interesting one was a girl named Murphy. I'm guessing her parents were fans of the show Murphy Brown. Haha.

Anyway, I find any name that has the word 'star' in it deplorable.
I don't think Murphy is that bad, I just would probably never use it.

Opinions?

yeah, any name with 'star' in it automatically makes me think of that trashy lady from White Oleander. notttt good.

I kinda like Murphy. I guess I have a thing for androgynous names for girls. *shrug*

I thought of the book too.

I don't think Murphy is attractive on either sex. Yick.

My mom's old friend from high school is named Starr.

And I agree, Murphy is blah for both sexes. It's too much of a last name for me. (And it was my grandma's dog's name!)

Murphy is UUUUGLY.
Star names are usually pretty hippish, i love Anastarsia. I think i just made that spelling up though! Like Anastastia but the 'sta' is pronounced 'star'...ehh i dont know how that would be spelt!
Starleen is kinda hick.. darleen, jolene..ick. Other than that it reminds me of Joseph Stalin!

I went to high school with a girl named Morning Star. Bullies called her Morning Sickness.

Murphy makes me think of Murphy's law. So much lame joke potential there

They sound like stripper names, the "Starr-" ones. I love Murphy for a boy and for a boy only. Reminds me of Boondock Saints. Although naming your child after that particular character is not exactly the best idea. =\

I went to school with a girl named Starleesha.

I think the "Star" names would have a potential to be pretty if they weren't so often used on hicks/prostitutes/strippers/white trash ... etc.

My friend named her daughter "Starlee". She's now two, with a head full of curly red hair, and is SO CUTE. It's so fitting.

I like Starlee, but not a fan of Starleen or Starrdai. Eugh.
