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.

Urgh, Toby is the worst. So drippy.

Names I can't stand for no particular reason:

Charlie
Paul
Kevin
Keith
Steven
Fin (a Fin will never be the head of a major corporation)

Catherine (mainly the sound of it...Cath just doesn't sound nice)
Laura
Poppy (just so babyish!)
Evie
Elizabeth
Amelia (I too don't get the popularity!)

Russell
David
Jessica

absolutely no reason, v irrational

Gavin
Toby - yeuchhh, yes

Maya. Makes me wince to say it.

And Joshua. Irrational, but there it is.

Excellent, so glad to see my name as I irrationally hate it, along with
Lisa
Ruth
Ellie
Lacey-May (et al)
Maureen (shudder)
Graham(ditto)
Kyle
Colin
Martin
Phillip

None of my dc's names here yet but that is because they are just plain weird

Annette, chavy & horrible & as its my middle name i'm allowed to slag it off. My dad's suggestion (if it's a boy) are his name (Malcolm) and my grandfathers name (Clarence). Errrrrr afraid thats a no to both suggestions dad!!!!

Trevor
Neil
Ian
Charles

Summer
Savannah
Saffron
Hazel
Laney
Lois
Chloe
Alexandra

3 dc and their names have not been mentioned so far?
I win!

How could I have forgotten Charles?

I have never been very keen on Zlartibartfast, but with that excepted I like to find something beautiful in all names, even ones I wouldn't choose for my own kids.

How could I forget

Billie Jo (BJ for short.... BJ!!!!!!)

ha haystack spot on. My favourite girl's name was for years Camilla. Just didn't seem right after if you know what I mean so DD didn't get it.

joseph
caitlin
lauren
archie

Ethan. Nathan. Lois. Holly. No reason whatsoever, just don't like the names.

Martin. Had to sit next to him in primary school and he smelled. (Yes, not his fault, but we were 5)

??? What a spiteful thread.

Blake, Blake, Blake, Blake... It's just a noise not a name.
Paige, Archie - just no
Dawn, Ruth - I almost fall asleep saying them

Both my DC have been mentioned hudjes. TBF I didn't find it offensive. There is a poster I know who has a child with a name I detest; in fact I think it's vile. Now if I were to mention that because I knew she would see it that would be spiteful.

Clarence is a great name!

Emily
Emma
Lucy
Katie
Cathy
Susan
Eve
Annette

All boring boring boring

Callum
Jake
Josh
Charlie
David
John
Simon
Peter
Otto

For the same reasons

Dds names not up there. Yey

Anyway. I hate Marc. With a C? I mean really?! Never trust a Marc with a c

I would assume Marc with a 'c' was a shortened version of Marcus.

Jack - I am truly perplexed about why it seems so popular these days.

A relation of mine has a son called Benjamin James. His Mum and Dad call him BJ! Everytime I hear it I snigger but they don't get how inappropriate it is!

u are joking right flowerygirl?
Ben is such a wet name too.
