I wish Bertha and Hortense (English pronunciation) could be rescued from their perception as hopelessly ugly names. I love both!As for boys, I'd love to see a Kermit resurgence.

I'd love to see the names rendered obsolete because of cartoons or kids shows on real people again.Barney, Casper, Elmo, Kermit, Clifford, Homer, BartWilma, Velma, Marge.... I'm pulling a blank here. What other female names now seem silly on an actual person because of a cartoon or children's show?

Many people associate my beloved Prunella with a secondary character in Arthur, but I don't think that association is the main reason why people deem the name unusable...Would Waldo fit in this group, too? And maybe Helga from Hey Arnold!?

I'm genuinely surprised these aren't in the top 1000.

I’m so surprised Louis isn’t higher on the charts already!

Deborah is excellent: Debby, Debbie, Debs etc unfortunately aren't.
