Re: Monica

I've always liked Monica.
Monica Lewinsky only crosses my mind when I hear "Lewinsky." For Monica, I think first of Monicas I've known. I work with one now, actually, and no one seems to react negatively to her name. There was also an admin at my son's school who gave birth to a Monica Violet last year.
I really don't believe Lewinsky has the power to ruin Monica. It has a long history and other associations--Friends, Monica Seles, and St. Monica, mother of St. Augustine, just to name a few--to say nothing of the fact that there are plenty of moms, aunts, and grandmas with the name, and future generations could revive the name in their honor.
