Names You Can't Stand #5

[Rita Chevrolet]

I dont like cricket oh no . I love it
Yep don't like the name or the song

Cricket is a french name of course where Framboise is also a girl's name (it means raspberry). WHY????

Imagine if it had rained and they saw a magpie instead of a robin
Maggie-Raine

How about Crow Thunderstorm? It sounds like a native american effort though

Chantelle/Shontelle, any I have ever met we're bogans.

Think that's the worst name I've heard this week.

It's in the UK on a segment called Struggling Britain: Cost of living pushes families to the brink . They also had another family with a Kade, Skylar and Marshall.

I've only heard Skylar used in good will hunting.

I know two Skylars & I think Michael J. Fox has daughter of that name too or something similar.

When the name doesnt work with the accent of that particular region. In my area, people pronounce names like Lola, Cole and Cody as Lerla, Kerl and Kerdy. I often wonder if the kids get confused when someone pronounces their name properly

 

[Ems55]

Arlo and Milo

Despise Finlay (and all spelling variations). I have taught at least 10 of them and not one of them has been likeable!

Also Felix - cat food vibes

 

[rivermonster]

Skipper is just such a random name, like Busy Philips daughters names Cricket and Birdie

Maybe they were fans - Cricket is the game and Birdie is the Umpire. (Dickie Bird, know as Birdie was an International cricket Umpire)

 

[Peachylace]

Nova, nope can't

Nova Webster was the posh girl I went to school with. In my day we were all Jane, Norma, Patricia, Jean and Alice.

 

[Inforapenny]

I love the name Skylar for a girl it's Dutch in origin. I like it because I've never across a girl with this name and to be it has lovely connotations.
However I also imagine a lot of people wouldn't warm to this name.

 

[Curly Top]

Apparently the latest trendy name for a girl is Ottilee. I've come across three newborns with this moniker.

 

[Wackie Jeaver]

surely proper sp is Ottilie? Ottilee is naff, Ottilie is French I think.

 

[Curly Top]

Ah, that will be my mistake. I've only heard it not seen it written down. I stand corrected.

 

[Wackie Jeaver]

Still not sure I like it though - if said in French accent, "Ott-eel-ie" could be nice, but not sure about yelling it out over the playground in an English accent...

Exactly. It does not trip off the tongue and I suppose it will be shortened to Otty or God forbid Ott.
