Which completely inoffensive names do you absolutely hate for no justifiable reason?

[MaryAstor]

I will start.

Francis.

Loathe it. Couldn't say why really. There are no bad connotations - it's neither 'chav' nor 'toff'. It's not made-up or too-trendy or old-fashioned. I couldn't say that the sound of it is awful. It doesn't remind me someone who bullied me at school. It's not even boring. I just fucking hate that name. Whenever I am introduced to a new baby called Francis, my reaction is always: "But why? For pity's sake, why? Out of all the possible names available, you chose Francis? You have some seriously terrible taste there, people." "Gosh, how lovely."

Same goes for Christopher. And Jenny.

Perfectly inoffensive names. Could give no good reason for my antipathy whatsoever.

Now I'm just waiting for DH's name to come up and then I'll have a full house :).

Just checking back to see if I have a full house yet - no, still need DS2's name to be mentioned . The rest of us are here, including all three of my siblings & both of my parents .

I've just thought of some more.

Hayley
Kelly
Kylie

Neither of my kids names are on here! yet :)

I have an irrational hatred of the name Lucy. I'm not sure why. I can see its inoffensive and everyone else seems to love it. I hate it.

I hate any surname used as a first name, so Taylor, Riley etc.

Charlotte always reminds me off the Macc Lads.

But Thomas is a first name that can be used as a surname....as are Charles,James etc. Loads are interchangeable.

Pauline. sounds horrible (but I have a dear friend called Pauline, she is the exception). Paulina is ok tho...

rhodri - husband's favourite.

Elizabeth

Charlotte is a beautiful, timeless, classic name and I will not hear otherwise .

Aiden
Ethan
Brandon
Max
Vince
Zak

Elizabeth
Sophia
Ellie

Sorry, just do.

Hooray! Full house - DP, DD and I are all on here. Only one missing is the cat.

Know it's been said before, but I can't abide Jayden, Kayden, etc, and anything made-y uppy/too surnamey.

Noah

Oh dear seen my name. Shouldn't be surprised as I saw a thread on here once saying Megans would never get good jobs.

Mine is Liam I cannot articulate why I just do not understand it as a name.

Paul, probably because of the years of reading Horrid Henry books to my nieces, nephews and DDs, so whenever I think of Paul, I think of Pimply Paul in the books. Stupid, I know. But it makes me feel ick.
Mortimer.

Rupert.

Evan. Don't know why though!

Wes/Wesley. I'm sure most people called Wesley are nice, I just don't like the name.

James.

Brian.

Tracy/Tracey.

Evelyn. Sorry, just don't like it.
Debbie/Deborah.

Devora/h. I know a good few aunts, as I'm Jewish and its a Hebrew name and I really dislike the name because it reminds me of ancient chocolate bars which they'd always give me and flowery teacups and sofas which you sink in to and have to battle to survive in because of crumbs etc; Sorry!

My name's been mentioned a few times as has boyfriend/DP so I'm not restraining myself. Mind you, I hate my name, and he hates his.

can anyone remember the ^all Emma's are EVIL' thing on Chris Moyles

though since then I have met some lovely Emmas so it can't be true :)

Nigel
Andy/Andrew
Simon
Ian
Lee
Sigourney
Nicole
Rosa
Sally - not sure why, it's my friend's name!

All my family have escaped so far...

Bailey just not a name just reminds me of thevdrink

don't like

Amelia / Poppy / Grace

Harry / Alfie / Finlay

Hate the name Lily, Lilly, Lillie, Lilie...however you want to spell it!!!

I also can't stand - for no reason girls names ending in A
Hilda,Kara, Monica, Sara, Tara, Zara

I thought I had an irrational hatred for the name Ethan, but then saw a trailer for mission impossible with that horrid little jiz stain Tom Cruise playing Ethan Hunt. So my hatred is entirely justified.

It is a shame though, because my friend's DS is an Ethan and he is a dear little boy. Stupid Tom Cruise!

Paige.
Dont actually know anyone called it.
Just seems and sounds like a piece of a book, and not well spelt either.

Flicky, Bunty, Hattie, Arabella etc.......
