Re: Irrational Reasons for Disliking Names?
Marissa - Almost every mean girl I've ever met had this name. I haven't met any nice Marissas.Quinn - I think the name's boring.Vera - A former friend who stopped being friends with me just because I chose to stay neutral in her and her boyfriend's breakup. They were both my friends (I was friends with Vera's ex before they started dating), and I listened to them vent about each other separately, without weighing in myself. I honestly didn't want to take sides, because I felt that would've been a betrayal.Byron - My dad's former friend who was a complete jerk to my sister and me.Helga - The first syllable always puts me off. Why would I want to give my daughter a name that starts with "Hell"?Fawn - An annoying mean girl I knew in middle school. I haven't met any other Fawns.Sloane - It sounds whiny to me for some reason.Brooke - Another annoying mean girl I knew in middle school. Haven't met any other Brookes.Kurt - Something about this name makes me cringe. All I think about is that one cantankerous neighbor who yells at everyone to get off his lawn, or turn the music down when it's not even nighttime. In a screenplay my sister and I are writing, the Big Bad in the story is named Kurt, because he's a bully.Yashasuiin!!
