Hmm ok, here's some names I dislike:
Carly, Emma, Lauren, Kelly, Karen, Manon, Gwawr, Mya, Shawna, Fran, Carol, Lizzie there's probably more but I can't think right now.
Myself, OH and younger son all made the list. No-one has mentioned my older son's name yet although I remember it being on a list of chavvy names once on here :eek:
Edit: just noticed it on this page, grrrrr. Thanks ontheloop
I think one associates names you dislike with the people you have encountered that you dislike. For years I couldn't bear the name Jenny because of a girl at school who just made me shudder. But then I met a man who had a daughter called Jenny and she is a joy so my view of the name has changed and i think its sweet and pretty now.
I tend not to like the names that you hear being shrieked by a chubby woman wearing 8 rings and tracksuit bottoms in Birkenhead. That would be Rhiannon, Kayleigh, Kyle, Chardonnay etc

That is utterly foul!
Isn't calling your child a hideous name like that some form of abuse?
Sound more like food than chavvy girl names
Bertha, Ingrid, Shanisqua...there's more awful names for girls than boys, but also loads more nice names to choose from for a girl.
Makes me think of Chesney off Corrie.:eek: Oh dear.:(

Wasn't he an otter in a kids' story?
The posh Fourmiles had a baby called Tarquin in George & Mildred
It is just such a dated name!!
Cyril, Cedric, Nigel, Derek, Malcolm, Peter
I was only just thinking if anyone had said Wendy... are there actually any Wendys under 50 out there???
Elsie is also a name you don't really hear any more thank God!
Ring of Bright Water?
Sorry :D
Guaranteed to grow up dancing in stilettos in the snow
- My name starts with a D too. I'm really surprised it's not been mentioned yet!
Only Kelly-Marie must sound worse than Kelly-Anne
