HelpRe: What are some name trends you personally think are not it?
in reply to a message by OvertiredPigeon
Repetitive sounds and patterns is what I dislike most. It used to be -ayden and -ason, now it's -eo/-io: Leo, Theo, Mateo, Elio... Some countries' top 10 name lists are really tedious. Germany, for example, has Leon, Leo, Luca, Lia, Lea, Lina, Leni and Lilly.
Haven't parents notice that there are other consonants than L and M in the alphabet? I'm tired of soft consonants. I'm starting to prefer names that contain harsh or lispy sounds that aren't easily likeable.
I also mostly dislike cutesy nicknames, but I have a soft spot for the more spunky/tomboyish names like Stevie and Scottie, and also for vintage comebacks such as Hattie or Teddy.
As for LNFNs, these are mostly an American thing. I'm in Europe, so I don't encounter them on daily basis. They're not my cup of Tea, but at least they are less boring and cutesy than all the Leo- and Ellie- names.

Scottie reminds me of the dog! Stevie reminds me of Stevie Nicks but I feel like the name [In her case, the nickname] has only really fit her and her only.
