So I can't dislike a name even though it's claaaaassic and chahhhhming and Your Lordship likes it?
I guess so, since you basically have decided you can't like any name that has gotten even moderate use in the last hundred years.
Just because you have imposed those silly, self-congratulating rules on yourself, doesn't mean everyone else is bound by them.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
