One of my best friends in all of the world is named Blair. He's not a mean girl and never would have been.

Hannah. I hate how it sounds and looks.
Katie (I like Kate, but not Katie; unfortunately there's just no escaping the "ie" when you're young, I guess)
Chloe. Just too many consonants.
Simon. Blech!
Kaitlyn/Catelyn
Maddie (same reasons as Hannah)
Luke/Lucas
Griffin
Riley

Named after Madison Avenue - why not Broadway or West Side Highway?

Also not a fan of names like Bronx, Brooklyn, Paris and all other names of cities.

Tagg and Trig are pretty bad. Willow wasn't a great choice either for Palin but she isn't known for making good decisions I suppose.[/quote

I'm no fan of any of the Palin names, but at least Willow, Bristol and Piper sound like names. Tagg and Trig and Track are... sounds. And don't match the others. Just weird.

A little off topic but our dog is named Rigley after the movement to "wriggle" because she was a very squirmy puppy. Our original name for her just didn't fit, and we get asked all the time if we're from Chicago. We're not, and it never even crossed our minds that there were so many dogs named this out there
