I hate the names Cody, Cory, Cole, Colby. Cody and Cole in particular are like fingernails on the chalkboard awful to me.
There are plenty of names that I don’t particularly like but ultimately don’t care. But something about those 4. |

Boys names on girls.
Last names as first names. Kre8tive names/spellings. Product names. Other that that, there are a lot of names that aren’t my taste (heavy sounding names with Gs and Ds, for instance), but I don’t hate them because there’s nothing “wrong” with those names. They’re simply not my style. |

Ugh boy names on girls are the worst.
I always think of Simon and Oliver as wussy boy names too. Owen doesn’t seem wussy to me, but Spencer, Liam, and Elliott do. Someone suggested Oliver to me for DS#2 and I had to work to keep a neutral, non-cringe face. |

I think if you spelled it like that and had a Jewish last name, people would get the idea. But if you’re naming your daughter Noah Johnson ... no. Just stop. |

| Last names as first names is tired. (And I admit we nearly went there too, glad we didn’t.) it was an awesome trend but not only does every name not work, it’s been overdone of late.) |

My oldest dc's name is on here. I'm not hurt-he's an adult, with a degree and great job. So I associate it with a successful person. |
