Opinions are fine. "I don't like this name" is an opinion. When we're talking about names, we're talking about the people who they represent, and our implicit judgments of them or their parents. I hate the "stripper name" comment. It's not an opinion worth sharing.

No, we aren’t talking about the people who wear the name. There may be some inherent judgement towards the bestowers of the name but not the bearers. You may hate a comment but that doesn’t make it any less of an opinion. I think saying you hate that comment isn’t an opinion worth sharping- see, all subjective. Again, if you’re too sensitive to hear people’s honest impressions then best to just not ask for them.
