What names would you never use because you associate them with unpleasant girls from school?

For me: Sian, Veronica, Claire and Bronagh.

School was a long time ago so most have been altered by impressions of other people I've met later, or even fictional characters and celebrities, with the same names.

Negative associations still readily spring to mind for Sarah, Amy and Elaine based on RL people from school/work/other - it took more than one in each case - and also a name which seems a bit too unusual to post;the girl from school is still the only person with that name I remember.
