DeForrestation? Shame on you!
I don't... sounds like an anti-conservation statement.
I could never dislike DeForest thanks to DeForest Kelley--I'm a Trekker from way back, after all. He's got to be the only positive association that could be made, though, for a name that sounds just like "deforest."
I also can't help thinking "can't see d'forest for d'trees," but that's me being silly.

I know someone with the last name DeForest. I always thought it sounded like a verb though, as in deforestation...
One can't pretend Forrest doesn't sound like a word.
But "forest" is a word with positive associations, which can't really be said for 'deforest' (is that a real word?).
Maybe you wouldn't but I'd call "the place where one can find peace and sanctity" and "the place least touched by society" and "the place that houses wildlife" positive associations.
Just because YOU don't like the forest doesn't mean everyone is going to have the same negative associations as you. Judging by this thread I think it's safe to say that most people have positive associations with forests

Yeah same. And I know a few people with it as a first name, which I think is totally hilarious.
