Names of the nicest people you have ever met!

So I am a bit bored waiting now, 40+1 and you are helping me with name ideas on another thread. However, just for fun, what are the names of the nicest people you know/knew?

Mine that spring to mind are:
Mary (looked after me as a child and was so, so kind)
Fabiola (an old friend who has a kind soul)
David (my lovely husband, also a kind person)

I am wondering if any themes arise as to nice/kind names!

Ooh, I know a Lita! Not nice though.

Joshua and Harriet (first foster parents), Ian and Caoimhe (second foster parents) and Gav and Tanya (last foster parents) stand out for me, as far as kindness goes. Also Hanna, Kailey, Flossie, Ryder (a girl) and Sargun, for girls. For boys, Niall, Isaiah, Elliott, Luca, Connor, Zeph, Callum and Navanan.

It's a Swedish meaning, I think.

Ooh I knew a Lita once. She was our lovely receptionist. That means trust in Swedish.

This thread is such a wonderful, happy idea!

Only reason I'm not adding mine is that they'll out me but I couldn't resist saying how sweet this thread is.

Helen.

And really the only other one that springs to mind is ... Eloine, but known as Ellie. She was a French girl I worked with briefly. She was utterly lovely. A total joy to be around. She was on a placement just for a few months in a dog's body/junior role, and had a leaving do at the end. The entire company turned out for it. She just seemed to have some sort of magical quality.

Janet, Abiola (Abby), Susie, Margaret, Bridget and Rosemary (my lovely, maths teacher, she was so nice we just couldn't bring ourselves to mess about. We weren't usually nice).

Wouldn't be wild about their names though. Smile
In fact dislike some of their names.
The names of people I have found particularly unpleasant are :
Rhona
Elizabeth
Orla
Lorna
Rosie
Lucy
Doreen
Ann
Joan
Some of those names I actually like!
