Evelyn -- I think this dates me, but Evelyn seems so dowdy to me.
Maya -- Meh, sounds insubstantial, even though it isn't really.
Nadine -- Okay. Unlike many French names, not too sticky sweet.
Heather -- I really dislike it. Its former massive popularity is a strike against it, as it is for all formerly massively popular names, but in this case, I can't understand it was ever massively popular to begin with. So ugly. That TH sound in the middle. Yuck.
Mary -- YAWN I CAN'T TAKE THE BOREDOM WHY NOT NAME HER "HEY YOU"
Lux -- Not pretty.
Geraldine -- Can only think of my overweight middle-school-age friend.
Alberta -- Fugly
Mona -- Sounds like "moan". Nuff said.
Christa/Krista -- So bored with all "Chris" names.
Felice -- Makes me think of a doe for some reason.

Horace -- Comical.
Percy -- Only a black guy can pull this off.
Nigel -- Foppish, but a black guy could pull it off.
David -- Despise. Not sure to what extent the fact that I was neck-deep in boys named David during my childhood and adolescence affects my opinion.
Akira -- Too foreign, can't judge.
Hans -- Ditto what I said about Akira.
Neville -- Foppish like Nigel.
George -- I just don't like.
Oliver -- Want to like, but don't.
Willem -- Okay.
Zeus -- No.
