Names you hate?

I came in to be nosey and I think I got to page 2 before my name is hated and common 🤣 and my gorgeous mum whose name is over used 😂 she must have been one of the originals 🤪
 
This one is kind of obvious: Karen.

All these poor people lmao, most of these names aren't even that bad. I did go to school with a girl named Secretion though. I felt bad cause I remember a substitute teacher didn't believe her when she said that was her name. He thought she was pulling a prank.
What were her parents on when they named her?!

rodney, marci, busby... no offense but yeah i dont like them
My name is Rodney... :( It's okay though, I'm not overly attached to my name anyways, and while I don't hate it and don't plan to change it, it's not like I'm necessarily just in love with it (I was named Rodney after my grandfather, and while I know that sounds sentimental, he died in 1988, twelve years before I was born, so it kinda felt odd to be named after someone I'd never know).
By the way, people tell me all the time I look and act different from most Rodneys anyway, so maybe I shatter perceptions. :p

I really hate weirdly spelled names or names that try to hard to be unique. For example:
- La-sha (Ladasha)
- Abcde(yes, this is an actual name and it’s pronounced “Ab City”)
- Boy
- Weird spelling of common names like Bayleighee, Mackeighlah, Taylee, Aliviyagh
- X Æ A-ii
There was one person named "ABCD" and it was pronounced "obesity"... I'm so sorry for that kid...

I can't deal with any weird variations of the name Emily but that's just because I've had to deal with Decades of spelling my name due to there being so many completely absurd spellings added over the years

yeah it's no personal offense, but here it's basically used as a hipster culture male name...and that hamster in AC doesn't make it any better. but yeah as with any name here nothing personal, i hate my own legal name also.

you sure do :p
 
There's a lot of names I don't like, but Tyler is probably one of the most common ones I absolutely loathe. Not a fan of most male Biblical names in general too, like Luke, Matthew, Ichabod, Aaron, etc.

I would say the -den's (Brayden, Jayden, Cayden, etc.), but I rarely encounter these where I live.
 
One of my friends works at a daycare and she comes across truly the worst names. Here are a couple of the more memorable ones she’s told me recently:

Buggy
Moss (pronounced Mose apparently)
And I wish I was kidding: Reddyt

Those poor children
 
Dennis.
My ex’s name. Irks my nerves. Come to think of all my ex’s names are on my **** list. 💩
 
I’m not fond of Hunter or Madison. They’re really common and I haven’t met a nice person with either name.
 
This seems hurtful, hope no one is offended TwT if it helps I hate the name Mary and that's my name sooo yeah
I dislike the name Adam... I've known a lot of crappy people named Adam. Otherwise names like Agnus and Apple... Maybe I have a problem with names that start with A. Owo Seriously don't name your kids Apple
 
I don't hate any name in particular (or at least none I can think of at the moment), about the only names I feel some negativity towards is Karen, but that's only because I've associated the name with all the memes spread around, and the other name I have no love for is my own. :)
 
Karen,
Aiden,
Benjamin,
Matthew,
Mark,
Riley,
Madison,
Elizabeth,

and last but least...

WHO THE HELL WOULD HAVE THE AUDACITY TO MAKE A BABY NAME LIKE 'ABCDE'????????? WTH??????????????????????

buuut yeah. I hate most common names. They're so overused that they're trash at this point.
If I ever have a son he'll be named Wolfgang and if I ever have a daughter she'll be named Raymond.
 
I've never met a Jennifer or Karen that was a nice person. Ever. Similar with Joe. The name Joe/Joseph makes me irrationally upset.
I also really dislike anything like Jaden/Jaylen, Becky, Rachel, etc.
 
My name and nearly every nickname I've had over the years have been mentioned in this topic, some multiple times. =(

I would have to think really hard on this one. I will say I'm really not fond of names like Chloey and Zoey and other names that are used more commonly in children nowadays. There are also some older names mentioned in this topic which are meh like Bertha. I also don't like Billy, it brings up images of a bratty bully boy. I just can't imagine a grown man using that name.

i have a brother named Joe lol
 
the name "Cameron" bothers me. I come from a Spanish-speaking family and it baffles me that anyone from a similar background names their child that given that it is so close to the word "camarón" aka "shrimp." but maybe seafood is their passion
 
I really dislike the alternate-spelling names that use "eigh" instead of whatever vowel/vowels were supposed to be there.
I also have an irrational dislike of the name "Craig." It's like the "moist" of names, just... squicks me out for some reason.

John. Like, you have literally thousands of names to choose from for your baby, and you choose the most boring, typical name in the English language?

Never heard of that name. But imo it doesn't suit to be a name
