I will always associate it with Colette MacDonald, who in 1970 was brutally murdered along with her two young daughters....by her own husband. (Though there are a few who still refuse to believe he's guilty---just sticking their heads in the sand.)

So it just has a tragic feel to me. It's an example of a name just being ruined by an association, but I can't get the association out of my head. Every time I see this name, I think of her. I could never ever use it. I really don't know what I would think of it if her murder hadn't occurred. Associations shouldn't ruin names, but sometimes they do.
