I mean as a first name............lots of lovely Louises out there with that as a middle name but five out of five Louises I have met have all been pretty dreadful.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Thanks urbino
My name's Clare

sumoweeble · 11/04/2015 00:13

2 of the nicest people I know are called Louise.

squoosh · 10/04/2015 14:53

I've always found Louises to be a bit bland rather than unpleasant.

JoanHickson · 10/04/2015 14:45

No mention of Wendy?

manicinsomniac · 10/04/2015 14:40

^^
I have - dozens of great Lauras and 2 nice Danielles.

Totality22 · 10/04/2015 14:23

I've never met a nice Danielle or Laura I've known several throughout my life, not a massive sample but big enough

snickers251 · 10/04/2015 14:21

I only know Louise's who are lovely

My no no name is Lisa due to knowing all that I have met to be mean

But then I'm a Nicola so maybe it's me

manicinsomniac · 10/04/2015 14:20

craziness continues!

I also know nice Bryonys and Laurens and the one Ashley I know is an adorable toddler. My best friend is a Rachel and most of the other Rachels I know are great too.

I'm a Rebecca and, although I'm not exactly lovely, I'm not awful either. Just normal I guess. Rebecca's a very common name so I do know some I don't like but also know lots that are awesome. As with all other names I'm sure.

I don't know any Pamelas to judge. I do happen to know some crazy-in-a-good-way Sallys though.

MoominKoalaAndMiniMoom · 10/04/2015 14:11

I've only ever met a vile Bryony.

Never met a nasty Steph.

I know one Louise who is a piece of work and one who is lovely, but several Louisas and all of them are fab.

ChrisQuean · 10/04/2015 13:35

Ha, that's always been my theory too, OP (nothing at all to do with the class bully at school and my evil stepmother being called this...) although I'm sure there are lovely people called Louise out there somewhere.

IsadoraQuagmire · 10/04/2015 13:34

The original Rather an extreme response, don't you think? I doubt if I've actually met met your daughter...

usualsuspect333 · 10/04/2015 13:29

What a stupid thread.

Longdistance · 10/04/2015 13:24

Rachel

I know Louise's, and only one was pleasant, everyone else was mean.

I however can vouch, that Nicola's are the devil reincarnate.

Tattiesthroughthebree · 10/04/2015 13:19

I know two Louises, one in her 40s, one teen, and they're both lovely.

SnotQueen · 10/04/2015 13:16

I wonder if any of you are talking about the same Louise?
The one I know is fine but has crazy hair. (Not that that is a bad thing - she werks it)

I dont know a nice Kerry.

GatoradeMeBitch · 10/04/2015 13:13

It could change. I've never met a pleasant Lauren, but I'm not prejudiced against all Laurens. (Just wary...)

idontknowmyusernameanymore · 10/04/2015 13:12

I know a horrid Louise. my sister [crying with laughter]

BitterChocolate · 10/04/2015 13:10

I've only known nice but shy Louises. I am a Nicola, and it is entirely true that I am nasty and selfish.

Pamelas are very superior and judgemental IME (I've only met three, but they are all superior).

AggressiveBunting · 10/04/2015 13:10

I have 2 lovely friends called Louise. I was bullied at school by a Lucy and it has tainted the name for me to the extent I could never use it for a DC, even though I now have a really close friend called Lucy.

Chippy You're right about Sally's. All 3 of the ones I know are totally bonkers (lovely, but bonkers)

ThursdayLast · 10/04/2015 13:07

I've never been close to a Louise.

Siobhan's aren't popular with me

ClaudetteWyms · 10/04/2015 13:06

I know a very lovely Louise.

Notso · 10/04/2015 13:04

I know a truly lovely Louise.

TheoriginalLEM · 10/04/2015 12:55

isadora my dd1 is called Rebecca so with respect, go fuck yourself! see, told you...

Kajamite · 10/04/2015 12:55

2 out of the 3 Louises I've met are absolutely lovely. The other one not so much.

I've met a lot of Ashleys though and not a single one was nice

TheoriginalLEM · 10/04/2015 12:54

My name is Louise- im a total bitch. You may have a point
