Re: Goody & Cotton
Cotton Mather springs to mind when paired with Goody, which comes from Goodwife. It annoyed me when the show "Wednesday" named an ancestor Goody Addams. It would be like having the first name Mrs. On its own, Goody makes me think of a goody-goody two shoes, and Cotton makes me think of fabric, fabric softener, and laundry.

About Wednesday, I think the fact that it's historically inappropriate just means it's more of an Addams Family name. Missus wouldn't be that weird next to Itt and Lumpy.
