Well i haven't had time to read all seven pages so i don't know if these names have been mentioned! But i would never name my kid any of these...

Mildred
Gertrude
Hubert
Eggbert - that one always cracks me up when someone says it

There are loads more but those ones were the main ones!

some names i dislike and would not name my child are

blanket
georgette
herman
fred
percival
lee
brando
willie hornblower(someone i know has a brother with this name)
edmond
ernest

I don't want to offend any one who has these names but these are the ones i don't like:

Diana- Kind of old sounding (it's my Mum's name!)

Nicholas- So booorrring! (My name! Though everyone calls me Nick)

Amanda- Just don't particularily like it, prefer Mandy or whatever.

Thats all for now folks!

Names are very tricky!!!!! Scary names like Ursula or something like that....oooh horrid!!!! And why, of all things, would you ever give your child a name like Bernard??? Believe me, soon to be parents, when you name your child/children please take into consideration that whatever name you do give them it will stay with them for the rest of their lives...just a small tip!

Never name your kids this please

-Gertrude (I can not imagine looking down at a cute girl and saying, "Oh isn't my Gertie the cutest!)

-Dhruv-I know a kid named this, he gets beaten up all the time, not just cause the name...

-James is an okay name only if your last name isn't Smith (I know a kid named this too)

-Bertha-just don't like it

-Eliot-this kid will get lots of junk about,"ET phone home."

-Wanda-Don't like it

-Valda Mae-not good!

-Agatha-Cringe just imagine being called Aggie. If anyone likes this name I am sorry, I just really don't like it.

-Agnes- No.

-Chastity- uhh, never.
That's all I can think of...

For those of you who listen to Dane Cook, The Retaliation, you might remember the name Optimus Prime. Now, this is just my opinion, but please don't ever name you son (or daughter) Optimus Prime. Although this part on his comedy CD was extremely funny

Bartholomew- just sounds horrible. bart is an okay nickname, but with the -holomew, i hate it.

Frank- reminds me of the old guy Frank on Seinfeld who yells a lot. scary

Lynor- sounds like a hillbilly

Luann- see Lynor

Angelica- my legal name, and I absolutely hate it. who would want to be named after a rugrat?

Thomas- reminds me of that old show about a train named thomas, and he talked and scared me really bad when i was little.

sheniqua- sounds like sequin, and once i got a tiny sequin stuck in my eye, and i was in pain, just like when i hear the name sheniqua (lol)

Margret- sounds perfect for an uptight old lady.

Homer- in spanish, it would be Homo. not the nicest name lol.

Anne- too plain

Canyon- this is a geographical term NOT a name! plus, i know this evil kid named Canyon at my school

Victor- if you want your kid to be called Victoria by his school chums, it would be the perfect name, but if you dont want your child to be scarred for life, spare him the name victor

Raiyan- lovely name if you live in Saudi Arabia, but here in America, dont expect anyone to be able to pronounce your name correctly

Ilana- sounds ugly

Martha- too plain, and reminds me of camp cupcake. lol

Michael- too many thousands of Michaels in the world. there are 3 in MY family alone. and they are not one two and three.

Tracy- my moms name, and her nickname is way dumb : Trace. who would want to be called trace?

Arnold- my dads name, and reminds me of that one cartoon on nickelodeon with that guy with the football head.

Adam- too plain. lacks pizzazz

there are many more where that came from.
angie............

well i would never name my kid:

Allie--i think it's like alice in wonderland, and i hate that movie

Jenna-- i think that name is too plain.

Katie--i know a lot of people with the name katelyn, or katie, so i think it's too common.

Billy--i know this guy named Billy and he's a jerk, and so far every Billy i've known is a jerk, so it just wouldn't work out.

Harry--seriously, this name is odd! its like calling your kid hairy or something...its creepy...

Jackie/Jaqueline-- i had a friend once named Jackie, her name always annoyed me for some reason...i dunno, but i don't really talk to her much anymore....

Nick--too much nickelodeon as a child.

Bruce--as much as i love batman, i can't stand his name...it's so..ordinary!

Tom--never ever will i name a child Tom, it's awfully dreaful. haha i reminded myself of hermione for a second...anyway, i dislike very much because every guy i ever met named tom is evil. or annoying, however you want to put it.

Carly--too many times have i been annoyed by a person named carly *coughs* evil virus *cough*

Ilana-- i hate the name, it reminds me of an old lady whom i never knew...its an old person name! haha no offense to anyone..

Brendon/Brendan--i've known plenty of Brendans in my day (and i tell you now that i'm not even 16) and they all are jerks.



i noticed that the names i picked are all people i know whom are jerks...oh well, the names are still not for me.

HOWEVER! i would love to name my son or daughter Robin. that'd be so cool...

Here they are!!!


Mildred
Winefred
ursula
robin
stacey (a boy)
Nancy
Arnold

Hope I haven't offended anyone!

I found very strange and funny names in this topic, hahaha. Well, here I go with the ones I ever hear and make me feel grateful with my parents for never bearing them in mind.

*America: I´m proud of my continent but no way...
*Marvel
*Gary: Gary Oldman is nice but I don´t like the name
*August: or any other month or day
*Maritza, Margoth, Martha
*Esther: I don´t know why but it scares me a lot
*Cedric
*Brad: Brad Pitt is really handsome but I have to say NO!
*Nelson
*Maybe: My cousin´s name. It´s cool but too confusing
*Herbert: Name of my best friend´s uncle
*Rosario
*Consolation: perhaps in spanish, but definitely no in english
*Beth
*Oswald
*Yuri: A neighbor girl

I know a girl named Margarita...I dont think I would ever name my child that. Hehe but its a pretty name in spanish
Another name I despise is Brittany its so over used....bleck no offense anyone

Hehe, well I can assure you that I have a whole list of names that I would never give my children, but I can only think of a few at the moment.

Phoebe - Ick! Horridity personified. [No offense to those named Phoebe ofcourse, just not my personal favorite]

Janis - Not really my taste.

Josephine - Where do I start?

Sara - [my own name] too trite! The epitome of overuse!

As sad as this sounds, a bountiful of lovely names have become unagreeable to me simply because of overuse.

Jenny, Amanda, Stephanie, Katherine, Mary...

It's a shame, really. I hope to find unique yet meaningful names for my children.

This has got to be the worst boy name ever....

Gaynor
or
Guy

Who made up that?

I used to hate the Names Angus and Morag.

But after having met a fair few Angus' and Morags in my time, i've learned to accept the names.

I still don't like them, they're horrid, and they're everywhere, I live in Scotland... Angus and Morag are IMO names for cows. (no offence)

I really have a thing against Family names. I don't see the point of naming your kid something just because some ancestors did the same. It's silly! Name your kid a name because you like the name not because some Great great great gtreat gtreat Grandfather did! Sorry, it's a pet Peeves...

*sigh* Is it obvious that I have a family name?

I really don't like the names

Paul, Gregory, Harold, Henry, anything that ends in Bert... Also, Penny, Jean, Joan, Jane, Anne. The tradionaly middle names. Also, names like Lindsey, John, David.... they scream to me 'I don't know what to name my child!'

I also, really dislike the name Helen.... which happens to be my name. Hope i didn't offend anyone, with the names i don't like...

I don't like the following names:
John
Jane
Richard
Himakshi
Pooja
Zara
Rohit
Sunny

*lol*

Parvati

No offense ment to any one who has these names.


Louise
Patric
Mark
Ellen
Cheryl
Julie
Thomas
Karen
Carly
Orville
Suesann

Thats it for now.
SL28

gertrude,
just gertrude. thats the only name in the world that i hate. oh wait one more, bethal
just bethal and gertrude. no wait and justin...eww. oh and maybe joslynn,ick. and ethal
(geeeheehee, bethal, ethal *snorts*) and lavender,(didn't much like the charactor either. she was like way to many girls at my school i'm kinda on the fence about my name. i won't tell you what it is, but it's not megan, i like that name. but my friend has the coolest name ever. xyla.pronounced zila. oh and norma. and katrina. sounds like a name for a cat. and bernice *gags*. did not mean to affend any one, if i did very sorry.


oh and kayla, sounds like some stupid cheerleader.

Sorry to all those celebs but who in their right mind calls their children things like
Bluebell, Apple, Fifi-Trixiebell and other such frilly names. Sorry to anyone with these names but I hate Wayne, Delores and Gertrude (thats a cow in some kids tv programme is'nt it?)

sometimes there is a fine line between orginal and kooky out of those names Apple is the most acceptable
i'd never name my child something i knew would hurt them like sunshine noone in their right would take them seriously if their name was sunshine
nicknames like sunshine are ok because they are from friends as harry plainy stated in hbp(#6)

Okay I have some names,


Nathaniel - it sort of reminds me of the hot dogs

Midlred - it sounds depressing

Jonas

Francois

Marla

Anne - is way to common and boring

Guenivere(sp) - it's so midieval times

Andrea

Nellie - reminds me of a horse

Olexsander - very strange way of spelling Alexander

That's all I can think of now, maybe more later!

~Allie

Oh and lunaisntweird, my mom goes to college with a girl names Sunshine except she's Phillipino.

I would never name my child "Remus', i don't really like the name, it only matches Lupin. I would also never name my child Andy, or Tori. Shelby is also a vry common name that im beging to get annoyed with. I wouln't name my child Steven either. I know a Steven, and thats *tramatizing*. lol.

The only names that I can come up with are these:

Veruca- lol...naming your kid after a wart on someone's foot? EW

Ethel- Ugh....can't stand it

Olive- I know a girl named that

Pickle- What were her parents thinking?

Pudding- it's a cute name for an anime character, but not a real person.

I think the worst names are things like Chastity and Charity, Levi, Brooklyn, Summer, Rain, Star etc...

What's the matter with people?! Pretty soon we're gonna have kids called things like Tarmac and Lamp post!!

I'll have you know that my best friends daughter is called Tarmac!

Only kidding, Yeah I know what you mean! It's getting crazy all these crazy made up names.

However I have a fondness for the name Slinky

However i do love the name Rain. I Think it's so pretty But i don't think I'd call my kid it, you know espeically as I live in Scotland!

I wouldn't call my kid Jesus or Moses Or something else with strong relgious connitations. It's a bit mean, I've met a Jesus and he always got teased I know in Spain it's quite a common name but in Britain it's not...

think about it the name ABCDE
it stands for abstinence if you name your kid that she would be a load of laughs

id never name my kids Bob or Billie or Ana.

Ana is close to my name, which is hannah, which i dont like much.
Bob...well yeah i dont really have to explain.
Billie...i just dont like that much.

and also never anything silly like Lala. haha that would be funny. she would get teased.

and nothing named after someone who i dont like...oh say for example PARIS. never Paris, as i dont like Paris Hilton. or London. or any name named after a place. hehe imagine someone named Chicago or Mexico.

I would never name my child after a thing. Like chair or cup (haha that's so funny!!!) or lamp or... i think you get the point! Also, names like apple and whatever is connected to fruits is out of the table! Can you imagine naming your kid banana? (HAHA!) And of course, i don't consider animals like bat, mouse, horse or whatever. And places, Rome, London, Venice...if i want to remember the best holidays i've ever had, i'll buy a camera!

Christina, Harry[Sorry Dan], Jessica, Brittney, Kelsey, Bob, Sarah... AHH!! Disturbing.

I have a few names that i would never name my children.
Horace

Younan(prounced yo-nan, if you're wondering) There's a guy a year younger than me with that name and he's a bit weird, and his name's Younan

Rosco- reminds me too of the sheriff from the Dukes of Hazzard

Francesca

Bo

Jacob

Hugo

I would also never follow what some celebrities do and name their child with unique names like Apple, Peaches, Brooklyn etc

Lol, I wouldn't at all like to call my child Richard. I despise that name. I wouldn't want to walk up the street with people shouting, OI DICKY. I hate that, uck. I would love for my child to actually be called Hermione, I love that name, I really do. I don't want my child to be called Daniel. Oh no, so many are called Daniel. Nope, not mine.

I wouldnt want to name my child any of the evil names in the HP books. Especially Tom. Well, thats actually my dad's name, no ofense to him. but anyways, i also wouldn't name my daughter bellatrix. It just sounds evil. So does Narcissa and Lucius. And Draco. but I would name my cat Bellatrix if I got a cat.

Here are the names I would name my children:

Boy- Jason, Drake, Josh (I like that show)

Girl- Lola. I absolutely love that name!

-Lucky

Oh no, you can call your son Tom after the barman at the Leaky Cauldron. If I ever have a child it is going to be a character out of Harry Potter. If it is a girl, Hermione, if it is a boy...hmm...maybe Harry, I would like it to be Dean, or maybe Nick after Nearly Headless Nick.

PS. Check out the Gryffindor House Thread to think of a new motto. Everything you need to know about choosing it will be there.

Well, my name is Kassandra and I happen to like my name.Here in Brownsville it's not too common.I wouldn't name my child:

Ashley:too stupid
Jane:simple
Frank:simple
Bob:funny (at camp there's a joke)
Maria:ugly
Joe:just don't like it
Ardy or Gerardo:sorry cousin and ex best friend.

and so many more I can't think of at the moment.


If I had kids, I would definetly name them after someone in Harry Potter.I named my dog Hermione.

HAH my ex is called Joe.

Neil- even though I fancy someone with that name it is hiddious and bland.

Mitchell- It sound like Rachel which is my name.

Tabatha- ERRRACCCK!

Margret- one of my two middle names and it sounds like an old lady...Im totally ditching it though.

Christine- The first name of my evil P.E teacher Mrs Potter! she was deffinatly

Valentina -- Know a girl with that name.. not very fond of her, and I don't like her name. Sorry!

Mitra -- never liked it..

Anna, Caroline, Anne, Ann, Carolina.. too similar to my own name, which I don't like..

Erlend -- Euuggh! My ex's name.. can't stand it..

Stian -- I've known too many boys with that name.. I'll never call my child that.

Haha, well, can't think of any more now..

Man there are some ugly names on this post, but I think I shall add on with some of my own ugly thoughts.


Stanley- just uck!
Ike or Ivan- I hate them sooo much!
Percy- why would anyone name someone this!
Rashal- just weird
Arnold- *shudders*
Richard- Man that would just be cruel to let your kid be called dick for the rest of their llife!

well there are some names that are just retarted and here are some of them and i am sorry if any one is named any of these names i am about to list but hey i don't like them that doesn't mean you don't have to like them.

Richard (because of the nickname is bad.)
Frank (because i always hated that name)
Patty (because well it is a bad name)
Cassidy (because that is just stupid)

Some names that i would NEVER name my kids but names that are humerous and fun to joke about and that are...kinda cool! lol

*archebald
*alfread
*frankie
*bob
*larry
*freddie

hehe

Well, I would never name my child Pilot inspektor, Banjo, or Apple Do those celebrities want their children to be tortured in school? I truly feel sorry for the kids.
As for some more ordinary names, I would never name a child Bob. This name always reminds me of Bob's Discount Furniture. I simply can't stand that guy or his commercials. Sorry to all you Bobs out there

Hah, bad names...I'm content with my name, Natalie. Not too rare and not too common.
I hope I dont offend anyone or anything, it's really nothing personal.

I dont really like the names:

-Andrew
-Charlie
-Gregory
-Paris
-Vicky, ugh. Victoria's okay, sometimes. As a middle name.
-Anne
-Martha
-Bernice
-Beatrice
and
-Bianca. That one is just to harsh of a word.

Or things like, Sabrina, Starr, Montana, Savannah, I dunno...Colorado. They're just going a bit over the top.
Or the worst...my sister knew someone she worked with named
"DaQueen."
Yes, my friends...DaQueen.

<3

DaQueen? Gosh, you've got to be joking! Who would ever want to name their child that? Poor bloke..

My name is Anne, but I'm not that fond of it. Well, I have two names, the second one is Caroline. I like that better. But when you put them together you get a new name, kind of.. so yeah, okay.

Other names I don't like is:

Sølvi
Mario
Leif

Uhm, can't think of more now..

Well i wouldn't ever name my kid....
-Charlie
-Gregory
-Larry
-Cactus i heard this name before.
-Draco,sorry Draco fans but,i really don't like this name that much for a kid of my own.

Oh, great, I'm so sorry Caoo.

I hope I didn't offend you, Anne Caroline is quite nice . I've just had a bad first impression with that name in my life I guess, and that always sticks with names for me.
I apologize.

<3

No problem! I mean, you said it was nothing personal, so.. And also, there are a lot of names out there, you'll always find some names you can't stand, and someone has that name. You didn't offend me at all, and there is no need to apologize

Hugs

I know a lot of people who have named there kid's stupid things...
I would just feel awful if I named my children the following names: (keep in mind I do know children with these names...)

Simba - Honestly... how cruel can you get!?! who names there kid after a disney character! much less an animal one!

Jadin - It's some kinda of biblical arabic name? It just dosen't fit the poor boy.

Ezeikiel - Uh... I dont' think this needs an explanation.

Jesus - (Hey-Zues) Stilll.... that's just asking for bullying.

and last but not least

Fern- Yes... like the plant.

i dont like the name Tabitha. its weird, i dont like it. and Richy. or Richard. or anything with the word 'Rich' in it. dont know why, i just dont like it. haha LouRan20, i also once knew a guy named Ezeikiel. didnt like him much, he was quite rude. and the name is bad. just hideous.

Haha Fall_out_Girl. I find it quite funny that you knew an ezeikiel that was reallly rude because the kid I know is an absolute brat. Maybe it's just such a horrid name that everyone named that is mad at the world?


-Lauren
