Ok, so which names WOULD teachers call their children?

Apologies for the thread in response to a thread, but after accusations that the other one was getting nasty, what names WOULD teachers choose, despite (or perhaps even because of) teaching pupils with that name?

For example, all of the pupils I have taught called Oliver, Alexander, Edward, Kathryn, Heather and Molly have been lovely.

The naughtiest boys I've taught were called Adam and Tom but if I had a DS I wouldn't hesitate to use those names because I loved those kids! My DD has a name shared with kids I taught but strangely it didn't put me off once it became her name.

A name doesn't define a person imo. But certain parents may have share the same taste and have the same parenting style, therefore leading to similar behaviour.

So I think it has to do with parenting rather than choosing the 'right' name .
