ROTFL at this thread! I have a few on this list: Maura, Emily, Noah, Larissa, Jordan, Darryle (girl), Amy, Melissa.
There are some names I don't negatively associate with former students but wouldn't name my children, just because they've been very common: Caitlin (and variations on spelling), Chase, Cody, Dylan, Jacob. I once had a single class with two Codys, two Chases, and a Caitlin, Katelyn, and Kaitlyn. I'm not kidding.

This made me giggle... I'm Emily and my sister's name is Moira (which is similar to Maura)

This kid on the soccer team my son played against this weekend was named "Josefat". It was spelled just like that on his jersey and his teammates were calling him that as well so I'm assuming it is not a last name.

I was out the other day and I thought a kid was named Simian. I was so upset the kid was named ape/monkey but then realized it was probably Simeon. Unless his parents study classical languages and it is a nickname for his ability to swing on monkey bars or climb trees, but I doubt it.
Another one I'd scratch off my list due to double entendre.

Last names are usually on Jerseys.
People on sports teams call each other by their last names during the game sometimes. Neither forename nor surname can be ruled out.

In most cases yes, but in this league that my kids play in, they put their first names on the jerseys. This group too was in the "Under 12" division but all of the kids on my son's team atleast were in elementary school with only one being in 6th grade.
