I think most people here agree that a name should be more than the fact that it sounds pretty. We're name nerds, after all. Pretty much everyone got teased in my class. Whether it be their name or their looks or the stupid answers they gave to teachers. I got teased because of my (sur)name myself. The kids that got teased for their names include: Anna, Johannes, Viktoria, Stefanie, Sinah, Marija, Tatjana and Thomas. Those are the ones I remember. All incredibly common and normal names.

That said, I hate word names, and I definitely think it's a difference whether you name your kid Sven (which is one of the most common names where I live) or you name it Gaylord or HeavenleighPryncess.
