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.

dislike most girls names with a g in them anywhere . at the start .a hard g to hard / mascuiline and a soft g to poncey .

all 3 letter names eg ava , amy , tom etc names just seems lazy sorry . really irrational

Actually, I am not keen on girls' "G" names especially the female versions of George; Georgia, Georgina etc, although there is no rational reason why. Not even association, as I have friends and rellies with these names.

Fred/Freddie/Frederick
Albert
Gertrude

Lesley.
Tony
Gary

Olivia
Pearl
Imogen.

All vile names, imo.

Agatha and Agnes. Two names that I can't imagine on anyone younger than 60.

...ok i could go on forever- im starting to wonder if there are any names left i do like!!

There are many perfectly lovely names which set my teeth on edge.

In no particular order and wishing to cause no offence to mothers-of:
George (I can't even say it without my mouth going all slack and gormless)
Henry
Edward/Frederick - these are the same name to me, in that they both conjure up a fat bloke in a beige mac with BO who lives with his mother and wears white socks and too short trousers. His palms are sweaty.Or hairy. Or both.
Joshua- shwishyshwoshy. Makes me salivate.
Finlay/Finley-(although I dislike that because it's common, not just because of a personal foible)

Emily/Lucy as Frederick/Edward are one,so are these. Wet wet wet.
Amelie- urgh. (though I find it a bit Finlay-esque) I always imagine it being said with a really strong black country accent.

Disclaimer: my own daughter's name is on here several times!

Evie (weak and blah)
Daisy/Maisie(common & faddy)
Isla (weak and wet)

Charlie/Alfie (see Daisy/Maisie)
Theo (sounds so twee and cutesy)
Harry/Henry (just dislike)

This thread has made me laugh so much, have seen my name, DC's names and the names of just about everyone I know!! Have now got to add Sonny and Boy eurgh!

FriskyMare - Boy? Really? You know someone named Boy?

All my family mentioned too!

So mine:

Ruth
Gregory
Timothy
Chloe
Lesley/Leslie
Wayne/Dwayne

Yes notanumber, sadly I do!

Maile - for a girl. Honestly, do they want her to hate them?

Finlay, Demi, Lexi(e) Lesley, Wayne, Georgina, Beryl, Muriel, Ursula.

But most of all Malachi.

Rowena

No reason, just don't like it!

Oliver
Jamie
Archie
Katherine
Margaret
Mona
Kevin
Tracy
Sharon
Lesley

Eliza and Elizabeth are my main ones, I know they are popular here but they are my least favourite names and I have no idea why.
Also:
Martha
Jane
Ruth
Eleanor
Ellen

Oh god yes, I hate Molly and Holly too!!!

Anthony, Joel, Nathan and Stephen, hideous, just hideous! ...let's not even mention Tony!!!!!!

Kelly, Lisa, Melanie, Melissa, Nicola ...I could go on!!!!

William and Rose. No reason at all, all the ones I've known have been perfectly pleasant.

really dislike any girl names like kayleigh, kayla, keely, kacy, kaelee, kaylynn ickkkkk but then i do like kadence!!!!! hmmmmmm

Robert, Albert, all other Bert names - I know plenty of people like them, I can't stand them.
