I don't like the name Dustin, I just think of dustbin.

I bet if the OP had started a ‘what names do you love?’ thread she’d have got the same names, just by different posters.

I heard of a new baby named Navy recently. Yes, really. 🙄

Navy is quite popular in some parts of America, especially country/south places. The singer who was shot at during the Harvest Festival mass shooting in Vegas has a daughter called Navy I think.

Ottilie. Just so awful and pretentious sounding. Sorry.

Not going ro list out the more obvious ones like Chantelle, Susan and Lauren etc

But perfectly fine names that I personally don’t like include Shane, Jason, Ruby, Stella, Sally, Patricia, Ellen, Sheila, Antoinette, Annette, Caitlin, Oonagh, Ann Marie, Helena, Thomas, Oliver, Michelle….

I fail to understand the big deal made out of middle names ie whether they are too popular, whether they go together etc. Apart from family literally nobody knows my middle names.
