Craig.
Went to school with a horrible boy called Craig. Awful bully who broke another boy’s arm in year 6 and was permanently excluded about a month into year 7.
I’ve met a couple of lovely Craigs since then but can’t shake the association.

Louisa

Boyd. I was bullied by one at school, he was an evil little bastard. Its an unusual name but all I see when I hear it is his smug pasty little face.

SquarePotato · 25/09/2020 22:22

Caroline - every one I ever met was self obsessed and nasty.

Megan2018 · 25/09/2020 22:24

Sarah, Louise and Elizabeth - witches.
Dee, Mina - evil
Philip and Robert - massive cunts

Garcellesaidwhaaat · 25/09/2020 22:25

None wth😂

There are a few people who have treated my awfully but I don't hate their name for it! (Has put me off ever using them for DC though)

monkeyonthetable · 25/09/2020 22:27

Caroline. The ones I know have all - with one exception - been self obsessed, domineering bullies.

monkeyonthetable · 25/09/2020 22:28

@SquarePotato - snap! The self-obsession. Weird.

MrsDaveGrohl78 · 25/09/2020 22:28

Also adding Laura, horrible, backstabbing bitch!

@Tara336

Lara total snotty cow from school, shame as I like the name but she put me off using it for my Dd
Maybe we knew the same Lara

Ben - sorry not met a nice one yet. I'm sure there's one out there somewhere

Lewis - work in education and there seems to be a theme among the troublemakers ...

LastFirstEverything · 25/09/2020 22:32

Megan was the name of one of the nicest people I've ever met, and the name of one of the most despicable as well, so mixed feelings on it altogether.

Same as Debbie- met one lovely one, and one really awful one! And Jackie- I've literally known at least 6 Jackies, really really well (including a relative)- totally mixed bag!

Rebelwithallthecause · 25/09/2020 22:35

Nikki - lying two faced cow
Vikki - controlling and a liar
Sam - absuive, thief,
Lucy - horrible manager
Kimberley - two faced

Nomoreilove · 25/09/2020 22:37

Lucy- horrible bitch at uni.

Justpickaname · 25/09/2020 22:37

Kyle, I was in a supermarket one time and the mum just kept shouting "Kyyuuulll" about a billion times, put me right off it

Justpickaname · 25/09/2020 22:39

Oh, and Paul.
I went out with 3 Paul's, all cheats and lyers

Tillygetsit · 25/09/2020 22:40

Never met a nice Lucy.
Agree about Caroline...vain and vile woman who put me off a nice name for life.
Andrea. Shudder.
Andrew. Exh so enough said.
My name is on this naughty list. I'm ok honestly!

CrocodileFondue · 25/09/2020 22:41

Jemma Angry

MissDollyMix · 25/09/2020 22:42

Nicola and Claire!

MissDollyMix · 25/09/2020 22:45

I also remember this horrible boy who I was at nursery school with! I remember him standing in the toilets with his pants around his ankles having a massive tantrum because he wanted someone to wipe his bum (it might not have been that exact reason but I was 3 so comprehension was limited!) Completely put off the name forever!

FizzingWhizzbee123 · 25/09/2020 22:45

Hannah, Natalie and Louise are all names I dislike based on previous experiences of cows with these names.

Funnily enough, I’m struggling to think of male names I dislike for the same reason though.

GarlicSoup · 25/09/2020 22:48

Lindsey
Tracey

Shivers😱

HunkyPunk · 25/09/2020 22:56

Dawn - once worked in a god awful job with a nasty piece of work called Dawn. Made my life a misery. Bitch.

This thread is really cathartic! Grin

GracieLouFreebushh · 25/09/2020 22:57

Laura - never met a nice one.

MondeoFan · 25/09/2020 23:05

Nicola- same as above
Sabrina - bully and just an awful, awful person
