    I have an Irish name and I don't like it, or most Irish names, especially ones with random fadas. I really hate the names Tiernan, Fiacra, Sadbh and Síofra. I'm an equal opportunities grump when it comes to other names. I hate the names Jamie, John Paul, Ciara and Sharon too.

    I always hated the name Patricia. Such an Irish mammy name.

    Cornelius. Poor friend had a miserable childhood.

    I love Irish names. I have one child with an Irish name and am pregnant with another, so I will give that an Irish name too.

    I despise my name, seriously, if I still spoke to my mother I would yell at her, Natalie, but since I am from Cork, it was always Nat-ly! Hate it so so much.

    Saw that there was an old Anglo-Saxon name Horalice for a girl.

    Yuck.

    Reece (skanger version of Rhys?)

    I was going to say this - I know two boys with this name and they are both horrible kids.

    Wasn't there a story out a few years ago where they polled teachers and the name Reece or Rhys came out on top as being the name they dread seeing most on the student register or something? Must see if I can find it...

    Shoshanna. Awful. And weirdly a kind of upper-class name in the states.
