I have now read the whole of this typically unpleasant name thread.
MN has taught me an awful lot about names.
I dont hate any name and I dont attach any meaning to them i.e. posh, chavvy, naughty etc.
Having a beautiful, kind and sweet little boy called Jaidon will do that if you stumble on to the name threads on here.
I didnt name him so have no personal axe to grind about people denigrating my choice.
What bothers me a lot is the amount of people who would sneer at him without knowing him.
He is a very special little lad who has been through more than most of you adults and is still standing, albeit a little wobbly.
I had no idea that there were people in the world who would bin cvs, not grant interviews, take an instant dislike to someone and lable a child in their class as naughty purely based on their name - before I joined MN.
Its the nastiest thing about this site.
I am not talking about people having preferences for naming their own children. I wouldnt name my child James or Freya, Oscar or Amelie. I think they are perfectly nice names but I would chose them, nor would I make nasty sneering remarks about their parents because of them.
Again - to be clear - I didnt chose his name. It has a lovely meaning and it is of Hebrew origin, incase you are interested - it is the name given to him by his birth mother.
And I wouldnt change it for the world.
