You just ask for opinions and they feel the need be so mean and cruel about the fact they don't like it.

Yea, I have definately noticed that. I don't understand why people can't just state their opinions and leave it at that. Why do people have to get so personal about it.
I asked a question a while back about what people thought about the name "Heaven Leigh Angel" for my daughter, and someone answered that it would guarantee her a position in the exotic dancing industry.
Responses like that are not what people are asking for, we are looking for CONSTRUCTIVE critisim!

Yes I have noticed that some people can be very rude. Even when I don't like a name I am respectful of the persons feeling because not everyone has the same taste in names, so why be so rude about it. I think if you don't like a name just say you don't like it and move on.

Yes
Yesterday, there was this women looking for a name for daughter.
She was thinking about Ruth, after her grandma. People were so rude, that she was not going to use Ruth in the name at all.
I do not understand why people are so rude
saying you do not like the the name is one thing
Some of the comments are cruel

i think I can speak for many on here when we say that we find it very curious why people would 1) seek complete strangers advice on something so personal and sacred as their baby's name and 2) after seeing the 1,110,838 asking whether or not amber rose alysa is a good name for a baby, it tends to get a bit monotanous.
Just my opinion - I still try not to get rude, but it does start to grate the nerves a little when you see the same question for the billionth time.

Have you ever noticed that people most often post baby names and are really looking to justify their choice under the guise of wanting opinions?
Honestly, if it bothers anyone so much that they don't like the responses, it's time to turn off the computer and toughen up that skin. But don't ask for opinions and expect to hear what you want.

Well, I looked at your last post and I like your names. I think the spellings are going to be a problem - I have a Jason, love the name Joshua and Jasper. They're good names and you shouldn't bother with other people's opinion.
When I had my daughter I wanted to call her Molly. Unfortunately one of my friends lived in a town where the local tramp was called Molly. Her objections to my name were so strong that it influenced my family. And I've never forgiven her. You're the one having the baby - you name it! It's one of the few areas in our lives where we have total control.
But I would go for simplicity:)

When I answer questions on here I try my best not to be rude. Though there were a couple of times that it may have come off that way. But I honestly try not to be rude. Because if you are truly planning on naming your child a certain name, who am I to tell you that name's awful. That would hurt your feelings and that's not who I want to be--- :)
I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings in the past...

This is a place where people can be blunt. We don't have to worry about hurting our best friends feelings and then facing them again the next day. People shouldn't be rude, but if you're asking for an opinion, that's what people are going to give you.

Most people are very opinionated, and that can be considered rude in some cases. But really, its just their opinion.
But yes, I have noticed that when you ask a seemingly simple question, some people on here tend to question your motives first and add their opinion without ever answering your question at all.

Well, I don't ask hoping that everyone will be nice to me. I want a truthful answer.
If I pick some stupid name that my kid will get picked on for having, I know I can get an honest answer here.
Sometimes it's hard to distinguish between creative and silly, so I appreciate the input...rude or not.
Besides, you're asking for your child's benefit, not for flattery ...right?
