Re: My list of Do*che Bag Names (Agree or Disagree)
Arthur (eye roll): Disagree
Alexander (daddy's little man, huh): Agree
Adrian (tries to be above it all, really isn't.): Disagree, this is actually one of my favorite names
Elijah (thinks he's better than Eli): Disagree
Benedict (Cos he hates being called Ben): Makes me think of a regency romance book hero
Christian (looking at you, Mr Grey): Agree
Demetrius (4 syllables of d bag): Agree, D-names seem to be popular for romance book alpha males, Demetrius, Damon, Damien, Dante etc.
Darius (conqueror of what?): Makes me think of an old man
Fabian (always wears scarves even when its warm): I actually know a Fabian who does exactly that...
Randolph (the ph ruins it): Makes me think of an old man
August (grr): Actually really like this one, though I prefer the female version Augusta
Nathaniel, Archibald, Julian , Robin (trust fund much?): Agree for Nathaniel and Archibald, disagree for Julian and Robin
John Mark (had to make it a double thing): I'm neutral about this, not a fan of the combination but each name separately is fine for me
Cassius (do I need to say it): Depends on how people pronounce it. Kas-see-us = sounds classy but he probably has pretentious parents. Cash-us = major D-bag, along the lines of Chad.
Edmund, Edwin (you know you're just going to be another 'Eddie' , huh?): Edward Cullen has ruined all Ed-names for me
Fletcher (you're the worst): disagree
Wilfred, Wilbur, Wilson (you know you're just going to be another 'Will', 'Willie', huh?): Makes me think of an old manMaybe I'm reading too many romance books.

The Demetrius Alpha male thing, I agree. I wanted to put in Dominic, but Dominic sounds a bit too sweet, nice guy to be truly alpha male.
