Every teacher has their own list of "absolutely never" names for future offspring. The amount of overlap is surprising
I feel like there has never been any good Jonathans, Aidens, Jacksons, Tyrees, Katies, Katrinas, Isaiahs, or Catherines. And any name that's hyphenated with Ann.
to add to the data points I've known 3 lovely Katies and 2 awful ones
Changes from country to country, I suppose. I'm not even a teacher, but I know damn well Samuel is an absolute no. Most other biblical names also tend to rate highly on the "DON'T" list.
