Jayden. No history, no famous bearers, nothing. It’s literally just a combination of James and Hayden, which are fine on their own. Just go with James, Jacob, Jack, John, Joseph, or even Jason. I can’t believe parents still use this atrocious moniker. I’d name my kid Gaylord before I named my kid Jayden.

I'm sure there is a group of names I can consider adding here (most of the Neo-Yuppie variety: https://www.behindthename.com/bb/baby/5361190), but the first one I thought of was Gudrun. I also remember people waxing poetic about this name once in a "most beautiful names" thread, and I could not comprehend what everyone was smoking, lol! Just don't see the appeal of this name at all, even within Nordic naming traditions. (And in English, it sounds like "good ruin.")

I don’t really have a least favorite name, to say. There are plenty of bad names out there. But if I were forced at gunpoint to say;Cletus and Cash for a boy.Unique and Lagina is pretty bad. Unique is just stupid - frankly.

Darcy for a guy.
Yuck.Jaxtyn is nms, lots of names are, but I don't have a "yuck" reaction to them.
There are other unisex names I don't like on guys, but I don't have that "yuck" reaction to them either.

I don’t like Mildred much but Milly or Millie is such a cute nickname.

I love Millie. I don't like the nicknames for Gertrude though, such as Trudy or Gerty.

Any variant of Aaliyah. Even without the really bad association I have with it, I never liked it and I can’t explain why.

Also Gertrude is pretty bad.

Bella. It gives me nausea just to see it, hearing it is even worse. Sure, some of the extremely kre8tyv names are weird but few of them are actually particularly ugly, just very very weird and unnecessary.

How is Bella kre8tyv? I’ve met like a billion and there’s no weird misspellings or anything.
vote up3
I think she means kr8tiv names aren’t that ugly as opposed to Bella, which she thinks is ugly but isn’t kr8tiv.

Gotcha

Yup. Everyone in this thread was mentioning modern names and, to me, they are usually strange or even annoying but I don't actually find most of them very ugly - some of them look actually kind of nice or sound ok. But Bella, despite being a well established, even boring name is just plain ugly to me. And, I think, it is actually to its detriment that it doesn't even have that novelty factor going for it.

Mackenzie, especially for girls. Really don’t understand how it became so popular.

Same, it’s such a mean girl name too.

Jaxxon and Jaxtyn are absolute revolting abominations. No doubt about it.

Jaxtyn. Jaxxon. Jaxcon. Jaxson. Jaxcyn. You get the idea. In 2020, there were 470 boys in the USA called Jaxtyn. Ew.

For boys Jaxxon and for girls Jleigh. But the worst is Jaxxon.

Elizabeth. Paisley 2nd.

Huh. Wonder what’s so bad about Elizabeth. Paisley is understandable.

Nothing really, it's fine but I also just don't like it. I like other language versions but, just something about it--it's never gonna be a name I care for.

Far to many to name, but to list just one: Paisley. Ugly and revolting like the pattern. The variants are even worse.
Jaxtyn is pretty bad. 100% with you on that. Nice to see that it dropped around 400 ranks, and I think by next year, it'll be gone. 🤞😄

This one gives me shivers like nails on a chalkboard. There is something very ugly about it. Like I can find (with effort) the cuteness in something Mildred or Gertrude, but Paisley? Nope.
