Re: "Ick" Names
People usually say Damon in response to this sort of question, which makes me sad because it's one of my favorite names. They also often say Scarlett (scar).Names that I have "ick" word associations for - with associated words in brackets in case it's not obvious. I don't think I actually make a face or shudder ... not usually anyway ...Felicity (fellatio; illicitly)
Felix (feel licks)
Addison ('s disease)
Fallon (phallus)
Agnes (acne)
Blaine (chilblains)
Sebastian (seborrhea)
Capucine (monkeys)
Ichabod (ichor)
Lucas (mucus)
Celia (celiac, cilia)
Memphis (symphysis pubis? I dunno, but ick.)
Chloris, Cletus- mirfak

Ha, Memphis itself is a little ick (though my beloved home). People should at least good for the sparklier Nashville if they're going to name their kid after a city in TN.

Those are really good examples. I'm particularly with you on Addison, Capucine, and Chloris (clitoris anyone?).
