Generally - with exceptions:
- Creative spellings, unnecessary y's, x's and z's (Exzavier, Madisyn, Rileigh, etc.)
- Ones that are super dated and sound like my grandparents' siblings (Walter, Florence, Dottie, Mildred)
- Trendy ones that will become dated to a time period (like the creative spellings -leigh endings, replacing vowels with y, pop culture references like Katniss, Miley, Renesmee)
- Names that start with U (Ursula, Ulysses, Una, Uma)
- Title names (King, Queenie, Princess, Prince, Duke)
- Random words (I don't mean established names that happen to also be words or commonly used jewels, nature, virtues, etc. but names like Blue, Lucky, Ace)
- Names with apostrophes
- Names that are very complex and hard to pronounce that come from Biblical or Mythological sources (Achilles, Zeus, Bathsheba)
- Cutesy or Pet-like names (Poppy, Bunny, Honey, Buddy, Rex)
- Random animals (Why are people naming kids Bear?)
