[Opinions] Re: Names on my PNL with low community ratings
So pretty much, English speaker problems is the reason? And the ones with j's in them, in those examples they're all pronounced as y so they don't really sound bad.

Unity might remind people of the Nazi Mitford sister. So it is more of an association problem?I cannot speak for everyone's reactions. The handful of names that I mentioned would have pronunciation issues and less than optimal associations in my area, which happens to be English speaking. You could ask a different language speaker their impressions and they will have their own associations whether positive or negative. Most of the names you listed had were over 50%, so more people saw the names positively than not.
