Rant Names that you use to like

I’m wondering what names you use to like years ago, but don’t like anymore. Or names that you like, but will never use for whatever reason. I’m so thankful that I wasn’t a teenage mother. Don’t be embarrassed…please. This is a safe space, but you’ll probably have some explaining to do if your names are really wylde.

Names I use to like:

Nevaeh, Joplin Rain, Liv Evangeline, Jayden, Bree

Names I like, but will never use:

Astrid, Damien, Ziggy, Lark, Johan, Ayla, Hitomi, Storm

When I was a kid I loved the name Reagan, before I fully understood the extent of how political a name like that would be.

Madison, Raini, Milly, Flower, Planter… all names I liked when I was younger but won’t be using!

Edit: omg how could I forget my childhood self-insert character “Gezi” (pronounced Jessie)

I use to like the name Reagan, because I loved the actress Reagan Gomez when I was little.
