Re: Kinsley

The "-nsley" part both disgusts and fascinates me. It's so gross I am kind of transfixed by it.
I'm putting Kinsley on my Uncanny Valley name list. It belongs with names like Sloane and Greer.

I also think -nsley sounds disgusting and am sort of fascinated by it. I don't know why I hate it so much. I don't hate the sound of Kinsey / Kenzie / Kingsley.
I don't quite categorize it with Sloane and Greer; I can maybe see those as...abrupt/gray/bleak/austere?...but they don't seem screechy or make me cringe like Kinsley, Tinsley, Ainsley do.
