Re: Least favorite name

Naomi. No matter how hard I try to understand the appeal, I just don't get it.
Cooper just sounds gross to me.
Donaldina.
Gerald and Geraldina.
Hermione. Don't like any of the sounds going on here.
Kellen. Can't stand the 'kel' sound for some reason.

I don't get Naomi either! It's so nasal and whiny.
Maybe in English it is common, but there's no nasal sounds in "Naomi". Still dislike it though, because the vowels clash.
In English, the first syllable is identical to the first syllable of "nasal," LOL (at least in my accent).
