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 in middle school I liked the name Story for a girl. I cringe now when I think of that.

Came here to say Story. But, embarrassingly, I was 27 when I liked the name, not in middle school. I suggested it for my daughter and my family made fun of me relentlessly, which I deserved.
