Which perfectly nice names do you really dislike for no reason you can put your finger on?

[notanumber]

I don't mean names that you think are:

'posh' (Fenella)
'chavvy' (Kayden)
'princessey' (Annabelle)
'hypheney' (Ellie-Mae)
'illiterate' (Mykal)
'ubiquitous' (Ruby)
'celeby' (Britney)
and so forth.

I mean names which for absolutely no reason you can put your finger on, you really really dislike. They don't come with associations or baggage, you just don't like it.

The test is, if you can say: "I don't like it because...(it reminds me of a horrible kid in primary school/it's really dated/ I know fifteen of them)" then it doesn't count. There has to be absolutely no justifiable (or unjustifiable) reason for your dislike of it.

For me: Hazel.

I just think it's really a horrid name.

Chloe, Natalie, Nicola

Sean, Kyle, Gareth, Dean

Lily
Annabel
Isaac
Noah

Jack and Callum

Jessica and Charlotte

Holly, Lauren, Olivia, Nicola

Matthew, Christopher, Richard

Olive, Francis

felicity loathe it . even though i can see it has a lovely meaning , is girly but not frilly , suits a baby and an adult and everyone we've mentioned it too in rl loves it . yet i still despise it. hate the nn flick , when i hear it it sounds like fleacity and when i see it written down i see facility . unfortunately it is the only girls name dh claims to love or even like .

YY, absolutely to Francis/Frances. Horrible for a boy or a girl.

Molly
Holly
Polly
Maisy
Daisy
Lily
Nathan
Ethan
Richard
Simon
Henry (Harry's fine)
Archie
Olivia, Lydia and Lauren (what's wrong with good old Laura?)
Not sure if I'm allowed these because I have reasons, but Ella, Ellie, Evie (Because I muddle them up) and things with confusing unisex forms like Leslie, Robyn, Charlie/Charlotte and Christine/Christopher.
Strangely I'm quite happy with Eva and Harriet (but that may be because she doesn't shorten it to Harry)
Finn etc because I just can't help thinking of a nice big plate of fish and chips.
I like Hazel

Olive also disgusting, I agree.

Barbara and Nigel

Just wrong

Keith, yes utterly horrible

Grace. Just hate hate hate that name and have no idea why. It is just ugly, clunky-sounding and yuk yuk yuk yuk!

Harriet and James.

I think I'm probably the only person on Mumsnet who hates the name James. Everyone on the name threads seems to love it.

Ruth. It is ugly. I can't explain why it is ugly, but it is most definitely ugly.

Kimberley,Beverley and Joyce

Faith. It should be pretty but is very much not.

Oliver.

It's particularly annoying as I'm pg with DC1 and DP loves that name!

Richard. It sounds like someone being sick.

Leo. Just a bloody horrible name.

Any blokes name with a v in it. Vernon, Vincent, Marvin, Mervin, Kevin, David, Steve, Alvin. Crap names.

Lauren
Nicole
Rachel

Simon, Gavin, Henry, Ryan, Damien, Noah,

Hariet, Olivia, Lauren, Matilda, Polly

Morag. Why why why why why would you call a baby Morag? Seriously, why?
