HelpRe: Agatha
in reply to a message by clevelandkentevans
I think Agatha is probably at the top ten of ugliest names. It’s just… hideous. And for some reason, all I can think of is Agatha-hagatha… I don’t remember ever calling anybody such an awful name, or anybody calling me that, or even hearing it. I have no idea why my brain is stuck on that.
I think the reason is reviving is the same reason ugly old lady names like Dorothy, Betty, Martha, Hilda etc, are on names of little girls in my daughters 1st grade classes… they’re becoming the new trend. They’re “different” than Harper and Sophia and Payton.
In my daughters classes there is the craziest range of names. You go from Dorothy to Grace to Paisley. Like… old fashioned to the extreme, common enough for many years, to new and trendy. I suppose it’s not all that crazy to some, but it makes me laugh sometimes.

Did you ever watch any episodes of the old American sitcom "Bewitched"? There was a character called Aunt Hagatha who appeared in several episodes of that series over its run.
