This post is inspired by a name nerd thread I saw on another site. In it, someone mentioned that Olivia was a name they'd always found pretty but now has "mean girl energy" (which may or may not be related to popularity), and a lot of other comments agreed. Thinking about it, I suppose Olivia does have kind of a glamorous yet mean aura à la "soap opera villain."
I'm mainly asking for writing purposes, but what other names give "mean girl energy" to you? They could be from any era. This is my own list:
Susan (particularly the nickname "Sue")
Deborah / Debra (particularly the nickname "Debbie" / "Debi")
Linda
Hilary / Hillary
Courtney
Nicole
Hayley (specifically this spelling)
Monica
Olivia
Mia
Chloe
