    Wyatt, anything that ends in -aden or has an extraneous letter, something that has a weird (to me) noun connotation like Blaze, Briar or Wren. Most surnames and almost all occupational names.

    Chad, Todd, Roger, Adolf, Dwayne, Destiny, Crystal, Chelsea, Leslie, Brittany (among many, many others).

    I didn't include the obvious Nevaeh, Jayden, Zayden, etc. because to do so would be to acknowledge that they are names.

    Neveh, Chris, L-ah (if that is even a name!), and those names with crazy x....like Jaxon.

    Names like Edith, Ethel, Mabel, Harriet, Maude, Hazel -- you get the idea.

    Also I'm not into trendy names like Madison, Taylor, etc.

    Jax, axel, McAnything.
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

    Beula, Birtha,Martha, Doris... Ok all really old lady names, yes some are coming back in style and I do like some, but others should stay gone.

    Jackson (or any other spelling), Camden, Ryker, Oscar, Filix... So uber trendy or very old man.

    There are a lot of names out that I love or strongly admire, but wouldn't use simply because they sound too WASPy for me to use on a half-Hispanic, half-Jewish child. But for the "my life depending on it" part, I guess I would say absolutely anything spelled uneek-ly.

    Belinda. IMO, this is one of the original made-up names (but I could be wrong). Also, I've met 3 Belindas IRL and all 3 of them were terrible people.

    A few that are popular here that come to mind: Scarlett, Amelia, Evelyn, Violet, Quinn, Harper, Piper. Almost every unisex name. Every time I see the name James on a girl I want to toss my cookies.

    For boys I can't stand Max(well), Dominic, Donovan, Damien, Devon. All of the boys I've ever known with these names have been holy terrors.
