Unsexy? _Change the language!!_ Agnes is on a couple of lists here. But if you heard it pronounced in French it’d make your spine melt, it’s so sexy. ---

How about for men: Evelyn [as in Waugh] Joyce [as in Kilmer] Beverly [for some reason, I know of several Southern guys named this] Can any of you women imagine shouting out these names during sex without it seeming really awkward? ---

Oh if you take off Alexandra, can you replace it with Eunice? I went to school with a girl named Eunice in a time of Jessica, Danielle and Stacy’s…she was teased mercilessly. ---

> [@](#): > > Male First Names between Da - Db - 5,111 names What? Who’s going to go through all those? I bet more than half are made up. I think the list would be funniest if it included names we at least heard of somewhere and not ones we just made up or are from third world countries. So basically my OP was shooting for American or British names. ---

Theedadell, Ernestine, Hecuba, Erlinda, are all names for women I thought were pretty cruel. Wilbur, Japheth, and Gaylord for guys. I about fell over when I read the post about someone named Debris. An ex-student of mine was named the same, only she pronounced it Deh-breece. ---

It is about as sexy as four day old, thrice run over road kill. It is the anti-blind date kinda name. It is birth control unto itself. It is a name that given to a baby gives her a tremendous obstacle to over come. It is a menstrual cramp of a name. What is it? **Joan.** Guess what my real name is? ---
