Curious what comes to mind with these baby names

[StinkyPooper]

What kinds of associations do you have with these baby names? For example, when I hear names like John, William, or Charles, I think of well to do businessmen.

Xander
Rory
Wes
Reese
Donovan
Remy
Chase
Christopher
Nico

Xander - nickname
Rory - wrong spelling
Wes - not a name
Reese - 1980's Mills & Boon devilishly handsome but probably 60 year old
Donovan - Surname, esp for Jason's
Remy - Building supplies
Chase - TV show
Christopher - classic Bible, timeless
Nico - nickname F1 driver potential

😂😂😂 love it

Xander - picture large USA/Canada hockey or football player
Rory - gilmore girls daughter. Possible Irish roots longtime back
Wes - 60+ distinguished black gent
Reese - Witherspoon
Donovan - traveller community
Remy - cute cartoon rat. I have a lovely girlfriend with this name.
Chase - American frat boy
Christopher - geeky finance analyst 50+
Nico - Italian mafia thug in NY

I like Rory and Remy best.

Xander - nice name, short for Alexander
Rory - nice name
Wes - short for Wesley
Reese - female spelling
Donovan - thug or Jason Donovan
Remy - unsure
Chase - paw patrol
Christopher - solid name
Nico - Greek, short for Nicolas

Written as it list like this I might think you were a big fan of TV shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Malcolm in the Middle or Gilmore Girls (although Rory from that is female).
Individually I wouldn't really think anything much apart from maybe Donovan I would think was an old family surname that you wanted to keep going.

Xander - Made up. Alexander is the proper name
Rory - dull, old fashioned
Wes - not a name
Reese -chavvy, and spelt wrong
Donovan - Americanised. Jason.
Remy- a girls name
Chase - effeminate
Christopher - very 70’s but lovely
Nico - faddy and try hard. In the same vein as Luca

Xander - Try hard.
Rory - Meh.
Wes - Horrible.
Reese - Awful and hate the spelling.
Donovan - Not a first name.
Remy - Girl's name. Fine.
Chase - Paw Patrol. Not a name.
Christopher - Boring.
Nico - No.

Bluntly, I’d think a parent had terrible taste in names. Apart from Rory which is inoffensive.

Xander - continental
Rory - nice
Wes - geezer
Reese - this spelling is for peanut butter candies, not people
Donovan - Jason
Remy - French
Chase - a verb, not a name
Christopher - nice
Nico - continental, should be short for Nicolas

Xander - smells of patchouli
Rory - bit wet
Wes - thinks they’re a vampire hunter
Reese - misspelled. Horrible American chocolate.
Donovan - old man, checked shirt, chews tobacco
Remy - rat
Chase - dog
Christopher - Robin
Nico - dog

Xander - Buffy's mate
Rory - a very proper old financial analyst I used to work with, very jolly hockey sticks,loved to tell us all about his travels in BangKOK (pronounced just like that.)
Wes - Bosun on Below Deck
Reese - Witherspoon
Donovan - bully in the Inbetweeners
Remy - Ratatouille
Chase - kiss chase
Christopher - yawn
Nico - bland

Xander - shortened version of Alexander - nice but a bit wet sounding.

Rory - I like this name, my favourite from your list. Makes me think of a rugby player, I don’t know why because I’m not into rugby and don’t know any of their names!

Wes - American weirdo who lives in a trailer.

Reese - I always think of rice/lice (even though I know that’s not how it’s pronounced) when I see this name, I hate it, the sound of it is like nails down a chalkboard for me.

Donovan - common surname, awful first name.

Remy - a rat 🤷🏻‍♀️, was it the name of the ratatouille rat, not sure.

Chase - paw patrol character I believe.

Christopher - boring.

Nico - an idiot who thinks he’s all that.

Xander - one of those doctor twins
Rory - perfectly nice name
Wes - film director like Wes Anderson or Craven
Reese - American peanut butter candy
Donovan - Mellow Yellow singer
Remy - Nice name (boy’s name)
Chase - Paw Patrol, very American sounding
Christopher - name of a dad in his 40s
Nico - cooler version of Nick

Xander - uber posh
Rory - a bit of a cheeky, off beat boy
Wes - I don’t think of a little boy with this name, I think of a slightly rough around the edges 40 something.
Reese - Middle class, sensitive little boy.
Donovan - a bit try hard of the parents to be different and off beat.
Remy - Quirky little boy.
Chase - All American
Christopher - very nice. Quite posh boy.
Nico - Nuevo rich. Quite naughty.

I’ve been a primary school teacher for nearly 20 years, so have quite strong opinions on names 🙈

Xander - cool European name
Rory - Irish, freckles and curly hair
Wes - fat sweaty American
Reese - chocolate peanut butter cups
Donovan - Australian
Remy - has a chic mum
Chase - a bank.
Christopher - strong solid name
Nico - if you live in France/Spain /Italy

Xander- Buffy
Rory- Gilmore Girls
Wes- Streeting
Reese- Witherspoon
Donovan- Jason… old and Australian
Remy- arrogant frenchman like my dickhead ex colleague
Chase- paw patrol
Christopher- not much, very neutral name
Nico- my friend’s Italian boyfriend

Please bear in mind these are entirely my personal thoughts and if you love any one of these names don't be put off by whatever random association I've come up with 😁

Xander - the edgy kid in highschool who was too cool to be Alex
Rory - McCann, who I love and was largely the reason I stuck game of thrones out until the end
Wes - Anderson movies, which I generally dislike
Reese - Witherspoon. If this is meant to be a boy's list I'd go with Rhys or Reece
Donovan - Jason. Also draught horses, I has a Clydesdale called Donovan who we nicknamed Dirty Donny due to his penchant for rolling in shite
Remy - I see a waifish androgynous french woman with a long cigarette in hand and those tiny trendy sunglasses that look oh so chic on a supermodel but make me look like Batou
Chase - Australian surfer dude
Christopher - I have an uncle Christopher who I hate so no pleasant associations with this completely normal name
Nico - My first thought is Niko Bellic honestly

With the exception of Christpher, dreadful and not proper names.

John, William and Charles are fine names along with: George, Edward, Thomas, Henry, James, Nicholas, etc, but I like classic names .

Xander - Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Rory - Dog name.
Wes - Anderson.
Reese - Peanut Butter.
Donovan - Bully from Inbetweeners.
Remy - Rat (Ratatouille).
Chase - Paw Patrol Dog.
Christopher - Robin.
Nico - Formula One.

Nothing much. Most are names I wouldn't pick. I'm not keen on Reece or Chase, but fundamentally there's nothing wrong with any of them.

Xander - Buffy
Rory - posh, red trousers
Wes - short for Wesley, bit drippy
Reece - peanut butter cups
Donovan - folk singer
Remy - girl
Chase - House
Christopher - no particular associations as widely used
Nico - Italian

Xander- short of Alexander and too cool to use Alex.
Rory -The Race car
Wes- craven not a name I’d use for a child, can imagine bullies saying Wally Wes
Reese - peanut cup
Donovan- ok but Jason springs to mind.
Remy - see it more as a girls name.
Chase - my son. I’m loving some of the responses to his name.
Christopher - fine but boring
Nico - slimy know it all.

Xander - Zander (fish)
Rory - Might have scottish heritage
Wes - not positive
Reese - peanut butter cups
Donovan - Jennifer Juniper
Remy - Martin
Chase - Cannock
Christopher - Columbus
Nico - Velvet Underground

Xander - Buffy the Vanpire Slayer
Rory - classic name
Wes - Anderson. Wesley is an awful name.
Reese’s pieces. I’d be spelling it Reece.
Donovan - Scottish crooner or Jason… or Irish traveller family
Remy - American spy
Chase - is on the case
Christopher - classic, never ages
Nico - nice but weird for an English kid with no
Latin roots

Xander - daughter's idiotic ex boyfriend
Rory - mother's old dog

Donovan - Jason
None of the others are proper names imo
