HelpRe: Most Pretentious Names?
in reply to a message by Rachel Shaina
Ooh, I love pretentious names!
Willoughby
Chauncey - poor Chauncey, I see that it has been mentioned a lot (love Chauncey!) but it's just so over the top pretentious that I had to include it too.
Jean-François and other French hyphenated names seem very pretentious to me in an Anglo-American context
Remington, Hamilton, Eaton, Pemberton, Arrington, Arlington etc - basically surnamey names ending in -ton
Aloysius - and other names ending in -us, especially Ancient Roman ones like Aurelianus, Bartholomeus, Hieronymus, Innocentius etc
