What a great thread! Ok, for boys.... the name Anthony has dreadful associations for me. Every Anthony I have ever taught has been a nightmare. For girls, Amanda. Oh, and the name Ashley...I haven't had any difficult girls named Ashley, just really chatty ones. I had 2 kids named Dylan one year, both dreadful. I heard some "interesting" names, too. Like the kid named Juvee who is always sent to my class for detention...

Wow, that P.E. class list a few pages back reminded me of one of my High School Classes. In a class of about 30 we had:

Jesse, Jessica 1, Jessica 2, Jessica 3, Jennifer 1, Jennifer 2, Johanna, Jordie, Jodie, Josie, Johnny and Jordan.

Michael- I used to like this name until I had a total a$$ of a student, now I can't stand it. (This kid was beyond wretched, he called me a f***ing slut, f***ing whore and f***ing bitch, and he was still in my room the next day).

Result of a discussion on this topic in the teachers' lounge: the top names they won't name their kids are geographical names like Dakota, Austin, and Savannah, as well as initial nicknames that end with J: AJ, DJ, TJ, etc.

It could've been, lol. That's what my teacher said when she read the roll call. "Who are you guys, the Duggars?" Needless to say it made for an interesting semester.

me too.

where I work there are 2 Emma's in my room and 1 of them is a total brat.

I'm not liking the name Natalie anymore, because of the girl in the room who is also a total brat.

As for boy names I'm not heading towards anti-Jacob, Evan and Brady

School is out, bwa ha ha, and I haven't worn a pair of shoes in 3 days!!!!!

Remember what I said a few posts above about all the AJs, DJs, TJs, etc.? Well, I still feel that way about the names but I'm feeling a little guility because one of the 6th graders who's thusly named left a note on my desk:

"Dear Dr. (badly spelled last name), I hop you will be my Spanish teacher again next year."

Love, _J
