This may be more of a "sand in my bathing suit" UO, but it is still one, nonetheless.
This is a Baby Names UO, but they don't do them over there, so I'm afraid that y'all are going to have to receive my UO.
I can't stand it when people ask "what do you think of this name?," and responders give name suggestions. A simple "love it" "like it" or "NMS" would suffice, "how about: _______, _______, ______" is patronizing.
I got that crap when I posted my names over there after we decided on them, and found it so insulting. If someone asks for help on names, fine. Give suggestions.
I know it's a random UO, but there's a girl over there right now that just vomits unsolicited name suggestions and it chaps my @ss, and I had to get that off my chest.

Eh, I think if you post a name on the names board, it's open for any type of debate. And sometimes the "how about" posters seem like they're trying to be helpful, if the names are a similar style/feel as the name in question.
Exception to the 'open for any type of debate' rule? When the kid is already born. I don't care how atrocious the name is, if a baby owns it, it's off limits (I'm looking at you, post from the Texas themed names lady.....)

I hope it's not me!
I'm pretty regular over there, but I try to only give what the poster asks and I'm never snarky. I know what you mean, though, and I have a feeling I know who you are talking about.
When I was pregnant with my daughter (before I knew she was a girl), people kept giving me suggestions like "Hunter", "Kelly", "Forrest"....... Because my last name is Green.
The best one I got, though, was "Soylent".
*facepalm*
Then, once we revealed her name (Nellie Rose), I actually had one person tell me that she was going to HATE ME for naming her that. That woman almost lost an eyeball to my 9 month pregnant rage.
Also, I had to comment on your Halloween costume. I went as a crazy cat lady three years ago for Halloween and I

Nope! Not you!!!
