So out of curiosity I searched my own name in the mumsnet search function to see what opinions are on my name as a ‘baby name’.

Turns out I have a very very horrible name that everyone hates!!!

Makes me feel a bit sad. I always thought it was quite nice.

Oh well....

Has anyone else done this?

Apparently loads of women with my name are known for being either completely bonkers, up their own arses or have greasy hair and rotten teeth :(

Mine often comes up as an old-fashioned, but not in a cool way, name.

Whenever someone suggests my name on a baby name thread someone immediately turns up and says “oh no, that’s a dog’s name!”

I assume they sound like hyacinth Bucket!
