Interesting point of view. I know that a child makes or breaks a name and that often leaves an impression. I once knew a girl name Teresa and she was the biggest brat ever. I ended up not liking her at all and then years later I met a man whos ex wife was Teresa and she was a nightmare so for me that name is a no go.

Lol, the biggest fattest nonscence I’ve ever heard

I don’t think name will really matter

Everybody will end up being their own person at the end of the day.

I’m a primary school teacher of 13 years and named my child Sofia. There are definitely names that I could say I’d never want to name my child, but we all have our personal experiences.

interesting article

Children don’t live out their name and if children are naughty at school, it’s because of the way their parents are not bringing them up.

This is just her opinion and probably they did act that this in her class. Doesn’t mean that all children with the names will all act the same way.

Not sure that this is as relevant in Australia. The teacher is from the USA by the sound of her accent, so possibly things are quite different.

I disagree with Jaclyn. I have a boy called Joshua and he isn’t a boy with the “frat boy energy!” Names doesn’t reveal the child’s personality or characteristics.

Absolutely ridiculous. She just wanted her 5 minutes of fame on TikTok. Glad she’s not a teacher any more seems very toxic to me.

How ridiculous. Although I have a Mia and she does give you a run for your money lol

What a load of bull. I know some kids with those names and they are polite kids. I work at a high school as an aide and yes you get your fair share of not so delightful kids and they all have different names to what’s on this list. A name does not define how well they are going to behave

Tik Tok and peoples need for their 40 seconds of very useless advise. The name of a child does not affect their behaviour., but hey people want to believe in this crap then go ahead everyone has a right to voice their opinion.

My opinion is this Jaclyn is a nut case and I feel the dye from her hair has some how effected her brain.
J boy names are toxic …gosh she must not be a Christian as I believe Jesus starts with a J and also John.

I’d have to advise NOT naming your son or daughter Jaclyn! 100% of the Jaclyns I’ve encountered have been judgemental, opinionated and – wrong! Fortunately, I’ve only ever encountered the one in this article.
P.S. If your name is also Jaclyn, I promise not to judge you on your name alone. xxx

I think this teacher is a little over the top and I don’t agree with her comments. You can’t categorise that a child is going to be a particular way just because of their name. That is ridiculous

Interesting, but that is just her lived experience. I don’t think a name is the only thing that will influence a child’s behaviour or attitude.

Really? I think this ex-teacher just got unlucky with her classes. Can never judge a child by their name, kids are who they are by their surroundings & up bringing or may have been born with a developmental issue/disability. Its not the name who makes em who they are.
However, if it was based on star signs, then I may agree. Lol!

hahaha this is a complete generalisation of the children she’s known. What you name your child is NOT going to define their personality.

  I agree and maybe people sadly form early judgments.
