To
submit names to me, please follow these directions. Note:
I WILL NOT POST YOUR NAMES IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THE RULES!
- Most importantly:
Keep it nice!!
Avoid mean things, like "the name Britni really really sucks!" or
"Anyone who uses the name Brian should be arrested." (you'd be amazed
at how many weird e-mails like this I get) DO NOT USE THE WORD
"HATE"!
- Write a couple
of sentences why you dislike the name. I will only post names that
have short explanations. Tell why you dislike the name. Don't just
say "I dislike the name Kelly." Explain why you dislike it.
-
If
you dislike a name because you dislike a person who has the name,
this is not very helpful. For example, I used to get beat on at
the bus stop in elementary school by a girl named Serena. Because
of this, I can't stand the name Serena. However, since I am the
only one with this association, it won't be very helpful to those
reading the explanation, since they don't know her. They might love
the name because they know a beautiful, talented, wonderful person
named Serena.
-
I
can't stress this enough--please proof read! I don't have time to
fix all your spelling errors and typos. I put all this information
on the website by hand, and I'm the one that slogs through all the
sloppy e-mails!
-
In
a perfect world, your e-mail will look something like this:
TO: xliontamer at yahoo dot com.
SUBJECT: dislike
Jason: This name is way too common. I can't walk down the street
without running into at least 10 of them.
Megan: To my ears, it sounds like the word "maggot."
Bertha: This is an old lady type name. I can't picture it on anyone
under the age of 90.
Max: I know too many dogs with this name to ever take it seriously
on a human
Hunter: This is way too violent a name to saddle a child with!
Sincerely yours,
Jane Q. Namefreak

Thus said, send in the names! Put the word "dislike" (notice I didn't
use the "h" word) in the subject line, and send your e-mails to
xliontamer at yahoo dot com.
