    I don't think most names are bad, it's just like the waaaay too common ones or the way too uncommon ones. I prefer the way too uncommon ones cause it's a real pain in the neck to be named "Jessica" because there's always about 20 other Jessicas in your class in school. So when someone is like "Hey Jessica!" about 20 heads turn and you don't know who is being called.

    And that just leads to a lot of horrible nick names like "Jay Jay" which is what my friends randomly decided to call me.

    I'd primarily avoid anything old-fashioned, IE - Frank, Alfred, Bert, Edward, etc.

    I think some of those names look very pretty, like Aimee. I think it's better than Amy.

It does get rather irritating when it gets to be TOO out there, or when someone changes their own name to be more unique, as in the case of Erin/Eryn/whatever it is now.

    As for what I'd never name kids....hm...Bertha, Helga, Gertrude, Britney, Joseph, John, David, Eric, Thomas....

    I can't stand names that are too classic, names that are too original, or weak-sounding names. I suppose that means I'll never have a John or Mary, Eylion or Rhyan or something. Nor would I name them "Dylan" or "Tiffany". Little kid names are a no-go. =P

    I like slight originality, but I really go for names that sound strong. Daniel or Thomas or something sounds good for a boy, and for a girl I'd want a name like Julia or Gabrielle. Very strong.

    Oh, and I can't stand names that are after places. Paris, Dakota, and Savanna = no.

    Boys- Ashley, Ashton, Blaire, Penny, Bailey... pretty much anything that sounds like a girl's name.

    Girls- Bebe, Deva, Chandra, Olga, Helba, Brittany, Marlowe, Bailey, Johanna, Lourdes, and many, many more.

    I'm thinking of naming a daughter (if I have one) 'Danica' because the name sounds so awesome.

    Girl: Gertrude (sorry if anybody's named Gertrude) or Dorris (ditto for any dorrises

    boy: oh gosh, there was this one really old fashioned one I saw a couple days ago that I thought would just be the most God awful thing in the world, but I can't remember it. Maca-something I think...
