HelpRe: Names that give "mean girl energy"
in reply to a message by erb816
If we're talking characters...
Something double barrelled, like Sarah-Jessica. And if someone calls her Sarah, she's like - NO, it's SARAH-JESSICA. By the way, I don't find either of those names to feel like that alone - but together, and when used in this way, I think it fits the vibe. (Yes, I did pinch this from S-J Parker).
Something long and that ends with an 'a' - Aubriana, Daniella, Arianna, Brianna - and if someone calls her (for example) Bree-anna, she's like - NO, it's Bree-arh-nah. It's the pronunciation for me that gives the mean girl vibe. You might be able do similar with names leaning more Victorian as well, such as Arabella or Araminta.
Meghan (pronounced as written, not Megan - Megan seems friendlier to me. Think along the lines of Megan Markle). I think Danielle and Brittney could work, too. Oh, and I agree with something like McKenzie or McKenna - used in full. The other characters could call her McK/Mac or something she would loathe behind her back.
