Jodiye?! wow. weirdly KrEaTiv misspellings of names to make them somehow "unique" is an awful enough trend, without people hashing up a name so badly that Josie - presumably? - appears as though it should be pronounced Jo-DYE. and the poor kids are lumbered with these awful names for life.

It’s like they couldn’t decide what spelling to go with so they just whacked in all the letters

I work with a Madeline but I never think of maddie mcann when talking to or about her.

But she is in her 40s I think a baby/toddler may be different?

Also reminds me of the TV show/film/book with the little French school girl
I think I may have mentioned the little Madeleine I know, who is primary school age. Her surname starts with McC and the C part also has 4 letters, which immediately made me think of the McCanns. I was so worried I would call the mum or dad Mr/Mrs McCann when they game to pick their daughter up from the house of the family I was nannying for! Thankfully the parents went out to speak to her parent and I just got the little girl and her stuff together.

Just seen someone called Burke.
I've only ever heard it as a surname, but as a first name I think it's awful! Makes me think of another name I'm not fond of - Brooke. Sounds so abrupt!

Abigail is one of the ugliest names out there.

My husband likes it because it means “father’s joy”. In his language (Hebrew) it’s Avigayil, which is marginally better, but still kind of rough.
I really hate the name Abigail, I had a friend called Abi and i would always involuntarily call her Scabby/scabs in my head, not because she was actually scabby or anything
Ouch!
 
Dusty is vile. As in… covered in dust? That’s what you want people to associate with your child? Are you quite mad?

Pretty sure an ex-Eastenders actress called her daughter Dusty as well.
