Rue - "You will rue the day that you crossed swords with..." Sorry, I associate it with the word that means "to bitterly regret."
Zendaya - I admire the actress, but her name has become so synonymous with her that anyone else with the name is overshadowed.
Jules - I prefer Jude or Julian.
Hunter - Hunter gatherer. I'm not into occupation names, but it is at least more nature based and outdoorsy than some.
Cassie - nice
Sydney - I like it. It isn't a name that I would use, but it has a free spirited vibe that isn't ostentatious or trying to prove anything.
Nate - I love Nathaniel. Nate is an okay nickname, but it seems insubstantial on its own.
Jacob - I dislike the meaning, but the name itself is fine.
Alexa - meh
Maddy - Sporty
Lexi - I encountered a golden retriever with that name.
Maude - A nice name for a horse.
Kat - Not my style, but I like Katarina.
Barbie - A cute form of endearment for Barbara that is perhaps too sugary and plastic now.
Fezco - sounds like a soft drink.
Angus - beef
Ethan - fine
Austin - okay
Javon - meh
& of course: Ashtray 'Ash' - Ash makes me think of Ash Ketchum in the Pokémon franchise. Ashtray is awful. It sounds like something an abusive parent who taps out cigarettes onto their kid's head might come up with.

It's prudent to note that "Ashtray" isn't the character's real name, but a moniker that was adopted since nobody knew what to call him.

No clue what Euphoria is in this context; the only names I like are Alexa and Angus, and Barbara if that's what Barbie is - I don't enjoy Barbie at all. Austin isn't bad, or wasn't before the Austin Powers character turned it into a joke in poor taste.

It's a popular HBO Max show. Haven't seen it but it has a great soundtrack, and Zendaya!Normally I would be against Barbie, but then I saw the actress (Barbie Ferreira) and immediately thought 'wow she totally rocks it'.Ashtray is great xD (for a character), reminds me of Jughead and Jellybean Jones.
