Re: Which names are considered tacky or trashy in your country/area? (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
My own name is considered "white trash" (not a term that I like) by some, along with Vanessa, Melissa, Kevin, Liam etc, so mainly American names.
Personally I think Novalie, Tindra (meaning sparkle) are trashy.
We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are.

It is the same in Austria, Kevin is seen as really trashy. Vanessa and Melissa are also a bit on the tacky side, but not nearly as much as Kevin. Liam is too new to have to many associations, but my guess is that it could go into the same direction. Interesting to see that it is similar in Sweden! Poor Melissa, I actually always had a soft spot for it, I love its meaning! I like your name Nicole as well! But it also has a slightly tacky image in Austria, unfortunately. However in France it is very classic, just a bit out of style. I am hoping for a comeback :D Tindra is actually kind of cute to me, but maybe that is different in Sweden :P
