[Opinions] Antagonistic 80s/90s Names
What names would come to mine for you for an antagonistic female character born in the late 80s, early 90s U.S. The character has a hyper- feminine personality and has very stereotypically girly hobbies like sewing and crafts. Wears a lot of pastel pink, yellows and oranges. Works as a teacher. But has a secret sadistic side and gets pleasure from the discomfort and or suffering of others. Secretly hurting specific vulnerable targets behind closed doors and acts oblivious and naive later. Names that are preferably "very girly" but have darker undertones in your eyes.Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.

Brittany, Lacey and Marissa sound like mean girl names.

Brittany screams mean girl from the 90s to me. My second choice would be Jessica. My third choice would be Courtney. Other options include Lindsay, Taylor, Kristen, Ashley, Megan, Sara, Danielle, Chelsea, Kelly, Rebecca, Amber, and Emily. I know mean girls with all of these names.

Well, currently, the bully on Stranger Things whose face everybody wanted to smash in was called Angela (season takes place in 1986). She was likely named for the irony of "angel" being in there, but it also fits the era.Of course, you can't forget Heather, either. There was a whole movie devoted to that. :-POther "pastel bully" names, off the top of my head:Kimberley (with the nickname Kimmie / Kimmy)
Stephanie
Tiffany
Nicole (this one is more 90s)
Amber
Courtney (also very 90s)

I wouldn’t say they’re “very 90s” but they could work in the 90s.
