Emmanuel -It's way too beating-you-over-the-head-with-a-Bible religious. I'd expect an Emmanuel to have extremely devout Evangelical parents.
Ira -Not unless you're naming an 80-year-old.
Nathan -I love Nathan, though I do prefer Nathaniel.
Soren -I go back and forth on this one. Sometimes I really like it and other times all I hear is "sore".

Joan -Crusty and ugly.
Katarina -LOVE.
Therese / Theresa -I have an irrational dislike for this family of names, but there's nothing wrong with them.
Theda -Sounds like someone falling down the stairs. I can't find any redeeming characteristics whatsoever. Sorry.
