So I just came across this article on another mom site and I dunno if it’s been discussed already on here or not but I found it interesting. It’s a list of the 10 most hated boys and girls names. The results:
Girls
[name]Nevaeh[/name] ("heaven" spelled backward and one of the most divisive names around, according to the poll)
[name]Destiny[/name] (people dislike names that confer a virtue onto a child -- and many associated this name with exotic dancers)
[name]Madison[/name]
[name]Mackenzie[/name]
[name]McKenna[/name]
[name]Addison[/name] (an example of a masculine named turned feminine, which many people dislike)
[name]Gertrude[/name] (people said this name is "ugly")
[name]Kaitlyn[/name] (for its "made-up" spelling)
[name]Makayla[/name]
[name]Bertha[/name] (author's note: duh!)
Boys
[name]Jayden[/name]
[name]Brayden[/name]
[name]Aiden[/name]
[name]Kaden[/name] (these rhyming names struck many as overdone)
[name]Hunter[/name] (too much like a last name or "too violent")
[name]Hayden[/name]
[name]Bentley[/name] (people dislike brand-name names, calling them "trashy")
[name]Tristan[/name]
[name]Michael[/name] (too boring, according to some)
[name]Jackson[/name]
So i’m just curious what you guys think about the lists? I agree with a lot of them but not every one. To see the full article (it’s got some interesting insights): The Most Hated Baby Names in America | Live Science
