An extremely hideous name. There are certain names that I just don't get how they could have *ever* been considered acceptable. The name Seymour is a prime example. Nerdy, awkward, and just plain ugly. Maybe it's okay for a "cute ugly" pet like a sphinx cat or something similar, but never for a person.

I love this name so much. It has a lot of personal significance to me, in addition to Little Shop of Horrors being one of my favorite movies. It sounds like an adventurous name, to "see more" of the world. Although, it is now hopelessly out of fashion and way too easy to make fun of, so sadly I can't use it for a son. Devastating, because it's one of my very favorites.
It goes without saying that this name is very old-fashioned, and it probably sounded a bit geeky even when it was common. To use it today would seem pretentious and elitist, and the poor boy would be laughed at. Besides, this name would create a comical effect with the wrong surname, and it reminds plenty of people of Seymour Skinner on the Simpsons. I can immediately hear the sharp sound of principal Skinner's mother's voice in my head when I even read this name somewhere.
