HelpRe: What names would you like to be out of fashion?
in reply to a message by Namaide
So many, but sticking to my top 10 names on the 'irritability' scale:
George, Charles, William, Charlotte, Elizabeth, Sarah - Puritanical and stuffy
Alfie, Archie - Alfred & Archibald have far more scope for nicknames the child can choose themselves, rather than being stuck with these cutesy diminutives for life
Willow - Sounds so quivery and trembling
Harper - My immediate thought is "one who incessantly nags and moans" not "one who plays a stringed musical instrument"
