I've never met a Josh who wasn't lovely...

Or an interesting Claudia, or a laid-back Lydia.

Any others?

Or a non dull Debra, a sparky Tracy or a kind Olivia.
It is hugely difficult to generalize about names and I expect you (and me) will be in for a bashing.
A few more
Nice Ryan
Non agressive Zach
Thougtful Mia.
It is possible that I have issues with the last three.

I've never met a sane and normal Jessica or a nice guy, unselfish Chris

MolotovCocktail · 27/02/2013 10:30

Sadly, I've never met a sweet, sensitive and understated Jodie, or a kind Nicola.

I've met lots of lovely Ben/Benjamins.

I know an aggressive Zach!!

This is lighthearted of course and I know that a name does not define a person :)

All names are tainted for me

DebK2012 · 27/02/2013 16:43

All Jessica's are mentalists!!

IAmLouisWalsh · 28/02/2013 21:23

I fucking have

usualsuspect · 28/02/2013 21:24

The only Josh I know is in prison.

Hassled · 28/02/2013 21:26

Lauras are always lovely. You can't be a Laura and not be sweet.

I agree about Joshs. I do know one who may well end up in prison but he's very charming and likeable with it.

navada · 28/02/2013 21:29

The only Josh I know is a little horror.

All the Tom's I've know have been lovely.

IHeartKingThistle · 28/02/2013 21:31

I've taught lots of horrible Joshuas!

True, Everlong.

Baby names is the pits of MN.

OkayHazel · 01/03/2013 16:56

All my Josh's are wonderful.

Ben's on the other hand, are violent wankers.

I have! In fact, I would go as far as to say that in my area, Josh is a fairly good indicator of wee horror status.

I'm pretty sure these things vary from area to arrea though, so maybe it's a nice boy name where you are. It isn't here.

usualsuspect · 01/03/2013 17:34

Ugh.

usualsuspect · 01/03/2013 17:34

Hazels are a bit odd I find Wink

I think it would be nice to have a light hearted thread about our own personal experience.

I have a theory that all Oscars have unpleasant mothers. Based on personal experience. Am still gathering data points, though :).

I'm not a Hazel.

My username refers to Hazel Grace Lancaster, a fictional 16 year old terminal lung cancer patient.

ReluctantBeing · 01/03/2013 18:49

I've taught plenty of unpleasant Joshes. It's a naughty boy name in my books.
