Hello,
I would really appreciate it if you have a look at this set of names I found. Tell me out of this list only, which ones have a sexy/hot/attractive feel and why? (in other words which names would you stereotypically associate with or imagine on an attractive person/heartthrob type?) The list alternates between boy and girl.
Also which aren’t sexy-sounding and why? Also bear in mind you should be thinking of someone in their late teens or twenties
[name_f]Beatriz[/name_f]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_f]Dora[/name_f]
[name_m]Eugene[/name_m]
[name_f]Fernanda[/name_f]
[name_m]Greg[/name_m]
[name_u]Hilary[/name_u]
[name_m]Irwin[/name_m]
Jova
[name_m]Kenneth[/name_m]
[name_f]Lidia[/name_f]
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_f]Aletta[/name_f]
[name_m]Bud[/name_m]
[name_f]Carlotta[/name_f]
[name_m]Daniel[/name_m]
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_m]Fabio[/name_m]
Gilma
[name_m]Hector[/name_m]
[name_f]Ileana[/name_f]
[name_m]John[/name_m]
[name_f]Kristy[/name_f]
[name_u]Lane[/name_u]
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
[name_m]Norman[/name_m]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_m]Paul[/name_m]
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_m]Sergio[/name_m]
[name_f]Tara[/name_f]
[name_m]Vicente[/name_m]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_f]Yolanda[/name_f]
[name_m]Zeke[/name_m]
UPDATE: I have also put each and every one of these names in the Name Age Calculator which calculates likely year of birth for a namebearer based on public records with the names listed above. Do any of these results surprise you?
Also I think a lot of the names are elegant and pretty but not really sexy except for about 5 of them… First half sounds frumpy, second half is better except for the middle aged names like [name_f]Miriam[/name_f] and [name_m]Paul[/name_m]
The best for boys would be [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], [name_u]Max[/name_u] and [name_m]Zeke[/name_m], the best for girls would be [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] and Emillia
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]/[name_m]Zeke[/name_m] definitely sound pretty cute, I admit! [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] and [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] aren’t bad but I’m British and I know/heard of tons of Olivias of varying attractiveness… It is a very common name here (I’m a uni student age 19)
Ehhh, I guess [name_f]Willa[/name_f] isn’t bad in some cultures but I can’t help but think of [name_m]Willy[/name_m] (slang term for you know what in the UK)
I agree with what you put for the unattractive names… Many of them sound very old-fashioned to me… or middle-aged… and [name_f]Aletta[/name_f] is a pretty old-fashioned Dutch name but it actually doesn’t sound bad looking at it now.
Thank you so much for replying to this thread; much appreciated!
Agreed; where I am from it is a name stereotypically associated with Home Counties posh boys from where I am Nothing wrong with them; they’re usually well put together; a different, classy sort of attractive I can imagine
What intrigues me… I don’t understand how [name_f]Willa[/name_f] is attractive? I mean maybe in other cultures but where I am from it makes me think of willy…
And the unattractive ones all sound middle-aged lmao
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Hector[/name_m] - this reminds me of [name_m]Prince[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m] from the movie [name_m]Troy[/name_m] so swooon!
[name_u]Lane[/name_u]
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_m]Zeke[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lidia[/name_f] - I prefer [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] though!
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - I prefer [name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f] - not my favorite [name_f]Rose[/name_f] name though
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
and I like [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] much more than [name_f]Beatriz[/name_f]!
“unattractive” (no offense to anyone with these names/used these names for their kids! it’s just personal preference here):
[name_m]Eugene[/name_m] - I know a very attractive [name_m]Eugene[/name_m] which helps the name, but it’s still a little too old man for me
[name_m]Irwin[/name_m]
[name_m]Fabio[/name_m]
[name_m]John[/name_m] - though “[name_m]Johnny[/name_m]” does sound a bit better
[name_m]Norman[/name_m]
[name_m]Paul[/name_m]
my favorites are probably [name_m]Hector[/name_m], [name_u]Max[/name_u], [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], [name_m]Zeke[/name_m], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], and [name_f]Lidia[/name_f]! I also find [name_m]Calvin[/name_m] and [name_u]Lane[/name_u] sweet though.
[name_m]Hector[/name_m] - this reminds me of [name_m]Prince[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m] from the movie [name_m]Troy[/name_m] so swooon!
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_u]Lane[/name_u]
[name_m]Zeke[/name_m]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
like (would change slightly):
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - I prefer [name_f]Olive[/name_f]!
[name_f]Lidia[/name_f] - prefer the [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] spelling
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f] - not my favorite [name_f]Rose[/name_f] name
[name_f]Kristy[/name_f] - I like [name_f]Krista[/name_f] more
[name_f]Beatriz[/name_f] - I much prefer [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]/[name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] or even [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Ileana[/name_f] is also nice, but my nieces best friend is named [name_f]Iliana[/name_f] so it just reminds me of her
unattractive (no offense to anyone with these names/used these names for their kids. it’s just personal preference!):
[name_m]Eugene[/name_m] - I know of a very attractive [name_m]Eugene[/name_m] which helps a little bit, but it’s still a little too old man for me
[name_m]Irwin[/name_m] - not a fan, though it does remind me of [name_m]Steve[/name_m] [name_m]Irwin[/name_m] and fam
[name_m]Kenneth[/name_m]
[name_m]Bud[/name_m]
[name_m]Fabio[/name_m]
[name_m]John[/name_m] - [name_m]Johnny[/name_m] is a little better though
[name_m]Norman[/name_m]
[name_m]Paul[/name_m]
[name_f]Fernanda[/name_f]
[name_f]Dora[/name_f]
[name_u]Hilary[/name_u] - too dated. [name_f]Ilaria[/name_f] is pretty.
Gilma
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f] - though I know one, and she wears her name just fine
[name_f]Yolanda[/name_f]
I totally agree with you on the unattractive list; they sound a little bit too middle-aged/oldish to me. If I saw that set of names I would most likely think of someone over 50 (however I was surprised when the first [name_m]Kenneth[/name_m] I met was someone in their mid-20s).
[name_f]Do[/name_f] you see unisex names such as [name_u]Lane[/name_u] more of a girl or a boy though?
I see! I wonder why you singled out these names though…?
I always thought the name [name_f]Kristy[/name_f] was someone in their 30s or 40s but I can see where you’re coming from!
I know of a [name_m]Greg[/name_m] and [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] in my class at uni
I used to know a [name_f]Lidia[/name_f] ([name_f]Lydia[/name_f]) who was a year younger than me (someone who was very insecure of herself, urban culture)
I also knew plenty of Olivias.
Nothing wrong with them; they’re usually well put together; a different, classy sort of attractive I can imagine
