Help[Opinions] Re: Names you are tired of
in reply to a message by BlakeIsHereStudios
In real life, Liam, Olivia/Oliver, and Layla/Leila/Lilah need a nice long break. More controversially not every family practicing Islam needs to name a child Muhammad. It is the most common name in the world, and I've heard it so, so much. I know it has religious significance, but there are lots of other lovely Arabic names that could use some love and have nice meanings.
In romance novels, I'm tired of men with one syllable names like Trent, Shane, Jack, etc. I'm also tired of characters with names that are incongruous with their background unless the story at least acknowledges that it is weird. If a story is set in the 1800s and the heroine is named Everly, the author better have a good explanation.
