I feel like I’m hearing the name Arlo a lot at baby groups and stuff. It’s one of those names that used to be posh and is now becoming common. I hate it. Even worse, when said in my local accent, it comes out as “Ahh-lurrr”

Arlo is the name of a feral little kid down my street.

I can’t stand Arlo, it’s such an unattractive looking (and sounding) name.I feel like I’m hearing the name Arlo a lot at baby groups and stuff. It’s one of those names that used to be posh and is now becoming common. I hate it. Even worse, when said in my local accent, it comes out as “Ahh-lurrr”
I think it’s fascinating when “posh” names filter down! I remember when Oscar was posh and eventually the Radfords used it.
Now Hugo seems to be going mainstream - the girl from Gogglebox who is pregnant right now has revealed that’s the baby’s name.
When I worked in the nhs, we had some glorious child names. The one to top them all, even over a boy named Doris, was the most beautiful 18 month old girl called klamydia, and yes pronounced as the disease too (but with their unique spelling). The clinic was mainly newcomers to the UK, English a second language). They named the baby as such, as they thought it was a lovely name ?? I really feel the consultant should have put them right, but no, and I had to go into the waiting room and call her name fortnightly! She would be 16 now, hopefully with a new name.
Was there also a La-a, pronounced Ladasha?
Is their sister Bohemian? Nicknamed Bo?
One of these baby name people on tiktok was asked for names ending in on. What was her first suggestion you may ask?
Agamemnon
Agamemnon
Missed opportunity imo! Their sibling is named Sonata. Yes, really.
Hugo. Hate it. Isn’t it the name of the hunchback in the Disney film?
Aria and Ava, no real reason other than they are super common locally and I’m fed up of hearing them. Especially if followed with a “Mae”.
People who use daft celebrity names like Axel, Saint, Grey etc. You aren’t a Kardashian, please stop.
I also hate most surnames as first names.

just saw a little boy named Gannon. it's a name i've never heard before, but it just reminds me of gammon! 
i think Hugo was one of the gargoyles in the film. the hunchback himself is named Quasimodo.
Not sure how you thought the hunchback was called Hugo
it's Quasimodo, let's see that one come into circulation! A guy I know ALMOST called his kid Aldo, and people had never heard of it, I've heard it in a film, the guy was french or summat. Not a fan
Laura, they are all fugly twats
Victor Hugo was the writer of The Hunchback of Notre Dame novel. The gargoyle “Hugo” in the Disney movie version was named for him.
how flattering
Nelly, you see it more and more now. It’s fine on the elephant that’s where it ends
I hate when people add Leigh to the name, its endless 
Demi-leigh, Jamie-leigh, amy-leigh 
. It all just reminds me of Dairylea 
Demi-leigh, Jamie-leigh, amy-leigh . It all just reminds me of Dairylea urgh, i get this with the kids next door. i don't like the names of the boys, but i used to quite like the name Lila, but hearing it screeched constantly at the little girl next door "Lyhh-Luhh! pack it in!" because she's always screaming - definitely made it another name i can't stand!Arlo is the name of a feral little kid down my street.
