What Names Are You Sick Of?

Ella, Ella, and Ella.

Seriously. I used to think this name was beautiful. Now I know at least 7 little Ellas, and a few Bellas and Ellies. Enough already!

g8trkim:
All the -ayden/-aiden/-aeden names.

This is my biggest peeve. Along with Kaley, Kylie, Kenzi... etc. Basically anything that seems to cutesy.

ETA: Emma (lovely, but holy cow I know a ton of them), Jaycie/Jacie/Jacey annoy me the same way as the ayden/aiden/aeden names.

Isabella! I loved this name 15 years ago and mourn its loss to the trendy category!

Also as a teenager I loved Riley and Mackenzie for a girl, Madison, names with the nn Addie.

Grace and Rose. I love them as first names but everyone is using them as filler middle names now.

Jacob and Olivia. A friend just named her baby Olivia a few weeks ago. They had been keeping the name a secret, and when I heard it my first thought was, oh another Olivia? Which is sad, because it's actually a very nice name, just way overused.

The Aiden names, all the girls names ending in the -Lee and -Lynn sounds

Aidan

ETA: I didn't much like most of these ever, didn't realize they were supposed to be names I once liked....

Any girl Mc names and most K girl names (esp Kinsley, Keira/Kira etc., Kennedy on a girl -HATE... .), Aubrey/Brielle and variations, Lil names, Harper, Olivia, Madison, Madeline, Abigail, Amelia (this one I'm so sick of), Charlotte, Jackson, Evelyn, Violet, Jack, Ryan, Ethan, Mason ...

ANYTHING with a random y or lynn or leigh ending...

I'm having a hard time thinking of some others off the top of my head but these are names that are either annoyingly trendy or I hear WAY TOO OFTEN on this board.
