What name do you really dislike?

[squaredspots]

I don't like the name Dustin, I just think of dustbin.
What name do you really dislike?

Saying I have a disability is passive aggressive? no its straight up fact.

Having that be hidden is NOT acceptable, its no one elses right to delete my disability from public knowledge.

The post was nothing to do with any of the previous posts about name or the thread it explained a symptom of a LD.

Ok, take it up with Mumsnet then instead of now turning on me - maybe it was deleted as it had no relevance to the thread whatsoever and was just you trying to make a point to another poster you were arguing with about who was trolling who.
For goodness sake, the pair of you grow up

No-one is called Corvette are they?? I think Porsche might be Portia which is a legitimate name with weight and history.
I also don't think Rebecca is the earliest spelling of that name, I think it was Rebekah.

Rebekka is the German, Dutch, Danish and Finnish spelling (although both German Rebeccas I've known used the CC version). Rebekah is the spelling used in the Bible, I think.

Yes I think it is, have seen a few baby Maud’s around recently….each to their own but it definitely wouldn’t be my name of choice!

Elsie
Kelly, Keely
Albert
Kayden, Jayden

You're doing it again, derailing the thread.

I know a scattering of hipsters' babies called Maud (and Ursula and Mabel). I quite like all three. Soft spot for a name that derives from 'bear'.

Nicolas - makes me think of knickerless.

Imogen - sounds like an energy company

Anything with a 'yoonique' spelling. Why condemn your kid to a lifetime of having to correct other people.

Also Hamish. (When I read it I think 'Ham-ish' and think of pigs. There's a lot of fantastic Scottish names out there, but Hamish is not for me....

Girls - Bella, Eve, Faith, Grace, Rose, Felicity

Boys - Ian, Neil, Graham, Nicholas, Luke, Oliver

Mauds! (I keep seeing names referred to in the plural, with random apostrophes. Sorry.) Maud is a terrible sounding name.

I met a little Noreen which caught me by surprise as a 'dated' name. She now goes by Norie at school and I don't think the kids think twice about it because theres a character on Hey, Duggee called Nori but for adults its a bit odd to hear it at first.

I know a lot of Ediths too, that had a really popular moment a few years ago. Lots of little Edies everywhere.

And I will forever as long as people shit on disability.

Its called protest and I have a legal right too it, if you don't care about abusive silence of disability then that says a lot about you but I live it every day and will and do not have to take it quietly. If that makes you uncomfortable then good its bloody working.

The quicker you aid in ending it the quicker the disruption stops.

I literally DID take it up with mumsnet, thats what you replied too.

@housethatbuiltme I'm not sure this kind of forum is the place for you.
You seem intent on picking fights with various other posters and going off on a tangent - no clue as to why you've hijacked someone else's thread in this way.
Literally nobody else has mentioned anything about learning disabilities or difficulties apart from you, literally nobody has made any comment on that whatsoever, it has nothing at all to do with the thread you're commenting on (likely why it was removed), it had no relevance at all to who or what you were initially responding to (someone mentioning apostrophes or being super annoying 'grammar police' does not open the floodgates) , every single person reading the thread can see you brought it up only to try and make a point and get the last word in with another poster (seems to be an obsession you have), you only mentioned it during a silly argument about who was trolling who to try and guilt trip the other person into backing down (neither of you were trolling by the way - both as bad as each other).
Nothing to do with 'shitting on disability', 'protest', 'aiding silence', you're being ridiculous.

For one last time and then I'll leave you to reply and have your last word.... stop derailing the thread and LET IT GO

I didn't Hijack the thread, I have participated many times and was enjoying doing such until someone started attacking the thread concept and me.

Someone repetitively picked on a symptom of my disability yes that IS an attack.

My post explaining it was a symptom was deleted and had no reason to be. It silences awareness and allows ignorance to continue. I did not pull something out of my ass it was something a poster repetitively has attacked me with and I ignored many times before FINALLY saying something something back.

Telling someone they are not welcome and its 'not the place for you' is also a form of exclusion.

I haven't only brought it up here, I use mumsnet regularly on posts raising awareness of disability of which there are many. This is not a secret or come out of the blue its well documented. A LOT of disabled people post here, we are allowed too and we are allowed to without harassment or being put down.

Ironic that you say I derailed the thread but you commented on me asking the mods a question (nothing to do with replies of other users who cannot possible answer the question) just to say I should 'take it up with the mods' and now continue to keep posting about it again and again.

Martha is a name I find incredibly ugly but it is really quite popular amongst the under 5’s where I live.

Olivia/liv, ottilie, Isabella/e, Annabelle, Charlotte, Lottie, Florence, Imogen. Basically anything try hard
teddy call them Edward at least! Kai, Oscar, Noah

Basically anything try hard

Is love to understand what that actually means?!

Surely that's Jane?

Lots of them are Sarah-Janes so you may have a point!

😆
What, even Travis, who sounds is if he's come all the way from Texarkana (or similar)?
Unless he changed it from Trevor....

I know a Jayden and a Cai and they are nice lads. I know of a posh Harrison. Lots of my family names are on this thread. I think some dislike is due to snobbery or inverse snobbery.

Wayne - sounds like whine, and I knew a very whiny Wayne as a kid!

Trudy - not sure why I don't like that one really, but it sounds a bit smug somehow. I've known more than one very nice Trudy but I still don't much like the name in isolation.

Albert/Albie - there's just something I don't like about the "alb" syllable. I don't like the Sikh name Balbinder either.

Eileen (not that anyone's likely to use it for a baby any time soon) - I can only picture a very cross looking skinny old woman who shouts at people.
