[quote=MaryamFamily][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any nature names, seeming to try too hard to seem like hippies or something:
Melody
Meadow
Daisy
Summer
Prairie
Misty
Willow

Might be more common in the Midwest than DMV (I have several cousins/second cousins in South Dakota with names above)[/quote]

I love many of these! The only one I really don't like is Misty. The rest are pretty though. I have known several girls and women named Summer and they are universally wonderful. Something about that name. But I also love Daisy and Willow.[/quote]

I think this is kind of a feeling against names that are too obvious-- along with the nature-like names above I'd include any names related to virtues. They just sound too obvious, labeling, I don't know, they just give me all negative feels. Like:

Charity (also the name of a gorgeous girl who flirted with a previous boyfriend so... don't like that name on many levels, LOL)
Joy
Grace
Faith
Blessing (this may be more common in other countries; I had a couple friends with this name in Zimbabwe)
Pax (for peace)

Ugh... may also be that I grew up in a very conservative Christian household so anything reminding me of kind of morally black and white expectations makes me annoyed  :? [/quote]
