Re: Names that are just...wrong.
In regards to Delilah, do you also think Jezebel is unusable? I feel they have such similar stories but for some reason people are okay with Delilah but against Jezebel.

No, I wouldn't use Jezebel either. I have never actually encountered someone who did consider Jezebel a usable name. Didn't she have the priests of other religions wiped out while she herself engaged in religious worship that included human sacrifice? She also falsified evidence against a neighbor so he would be executed and she could acquire his land. Mostly, Jezebel is seen as a sort of insulting epithet or an attempt at having an edgy blog name.
