Are there any names you don't like purely because of who you knew with those names?

I hate the name Judith. Although when I actually think about it I think it is a perfectly pleasant and nice name. But I have only known two people called Judith and they were both horrible women.
Are there any names that you don't like ONLY because you knew someone with that name 2ho you did not like?

Christine! Never met a nice one ever.

Kimberley. I’ve never met a nice one. I’m sure they exist but sadly they haven’t crossed my path yet!

Elise, only ever known one but she was my BF's stalker ex and she made my life a misery. Can't hear the name without shuddering even now, over 20 years later.

Fiona. A complete and utter snake.

Jenny. Every single Jenny in my school was a mean girl. Except for the ones I didn’t know existed.

Big Austen fan here, and I love(d) the name Marianne.

Then I met my uni housemate’s gf and it’s become ubiquitous with “possessive nutter”. It’s a pity because it’s such a beautiful name, but I can’t get passed the association.

I know a lovely Christine!

Gabrielle for me. Blah.

I was not naturally keen on the name Fiona. But the women I have known called this have all been lovely, and as a result the name has grown on me.

DuckofDoom, I can not hear the name Kimberley without thinking of Victoria woods impressions.

Adolf

Sophie. Went to Uni with a horrible, two faced Sophie and now the name is ruined. Before her I used to like it and would have used it as a baby name.

Lisa, every single one I have ever met has been cruel, self centred and downright mean.

Anastasia, it's a lovely sounding name, but I was bullied by a girl at school, just can't bring myself to like it, plus never met another one.

Helen. Nicola. Carol. Jeremy.

I was bullied by someone with the same name as me so I can't really take against it too much :P

Vicky, Imogen, Emma

Katie and Michelle. Bloody cows!

Evelyn. A walking cunt.
Frank. A paedophile.
Anthony. A perv.
Shirley. A bit rough.

The older names that have made a comeback recently
I’m of an older generation and my father had friends and relatives named Arthur, Albert, Archie, Alfie/Alf, Wilfred, Stanley/Stan, Albee
All I can picture in my mind when I hear these names is the older men and I would never wish them in any of the younger generation
Bear in mind, this is just my opinion/thoughts and everyone is free to choose any name they want

Yes Lucy.

Yes, the cons of working in a school 😬

Amanda.

Every single one of these bar one that I've ever met was a bullying snake, frankly.

The exception was a Mandy who hated her full name! She was perfectly pleasant.

The name George makes me shudder. It's a bit unfortunate how popular it is!!

Tiana, joanna, eilidh, lesley all very nasty girls

Henry, Charlie, Lucy and Christine were insecure bullies

I agree with Amanda, not a bully for me but was definitely bitchy sort
