Yeah that one guy completely ruined that name forever.....

The nicest, most generous and kind person I ever met is named Karen. What a shame that the name has been destroyed.

Damn shame. My favorite aunt is named Karen. Only other one in the family who chose not to have kids.

My aunt is named Karen, she is a lovely person, wish the internet hadn't ruined the name

I don't really understand the whole Karen thing. I thought it meant, a specific kind of irrational, demanding, entitled person. But, now it seems like, anytime a woman is angry, they're labeled Karen in some video. Even if they are completely justified and rational. Half the time, it's the person doing the filming, who's being the real Karen. I just don't get it.

I also know 2 nice Karens. Neither of them care that their name has come to mean what it does.

I don't believe that no one's being named that or it's ruined. No one actually cares about the stereotype in real life and if you do you need help.

Obviously Karen the name and Karen the concept are different things. If people are conflating the two, not much you can do about that.

I don't understand why everyone named Karen are being judged and canceled just because of their name. I mean isn't this an example of prejudice at its worst?

The one Karen I know is exactly like the meme.

My boyfriend’s mother’s name is Karen. She’s a sweetheart.

To be fair, it had fallen out of popularity long before the internet came along.

This annoys the hell out of me because the person who ruined my name isn’t even named Karen. Why don’t we call those people Kates?

I always wonder about this person whose picture is used for the Karen meme, as shown. Can she even go out in public? Does she have to wear a disguise?

Called it again

Always said if I had a daughter...she would be named Karen...probley lucky I didn't.

I’ve met some actual Karens that were very nice and I’ve met literal Karens that were huge b*tches.

In the Caucasus region Karen is a male name (pronounced [kΛ'ræn]). I met quite a few, all of them nice guys

I work at a Middle School where there's a student named Karen.

Yeah, Piggy isn't doing too well either.

Thousands of years of the name only for it to be ruined like that.

Mine goes by “Echo”. The human name weirded me out.

Trump is the death knell for many, but we can probably thank a Disney duck for a lot of it.

My God that book was hard to read.

That sod shot 77 people on a norwegian island in 2011.

Aaaaaalllviiiiiin!

Looking at the stats, Katrina seem to have been in steady decline since 1980 (in the US that it).

Much better than buying a pair Adolfas.

Weird because he was good enough to be a disciple of the Son of God. An alternate view has it that as Jesus knew who all his disciples would be, he specifically chose Judas to fulfill the required acts to ensure his crucifixion and resurrection, Judas agreed to enact Christ's plan and accepted that he would be hated for it.

Didn't know this was even a name to be honest 😳

The prejudice against Kevins is known as Kevinism. Jokes like "Kevin isn't a name, it's a diagnosis." It's a phenomenon in France too. A French documentary maker (also named Kevin) crowdfunded a documentary on the topic, working title "Save the Kevins"...

A friends daughter is named Lilith, beautiful name but almost gave his devout Catholic grandma a heart attack...

She couldn't just say she was his wife?

I know a couple of Kevins, all are smart and nice

It's not as though kids being born now will know or care about Amber Heard.

Hi, please stop down voting people who are asking informational questions!! Not all the people on BP are American, or adults, or are simply not privy to all newsworthy people. Answer nicely or scroll on.

Oh God, I hadn't even thought of that.

For those who don't know her and a man called Ian Brady killed children and buried them on the Yorkshire moors.

Doesn't seem too huge of a loss to society...

not journalist, Newspaper Editor. He got his political start as the editor in chief of Avante, Italy's most prominent socialist newspaper and one of the most influential socialist publications in the world. He was considered one of the defaco leaders of Italy's socialist movement. He however began to turn on the internationsim of the socialist movement and started promoting that socialism needed to be blended with nationalism. Then he one day quit Avante and a year later is the editor in chief of the brand new publication for a tiny political movement called the Fascistii , and over time he took over the movement and the rest is history.

Fun fact: "ellen" means "ugly" in Luxemburgish. Not a popular name there either, I guess.

Why would you give a child a last name for a first name?

Wasn't Kahleesi a thing for a bit aswell?

Somewhere, Wolverine is shaking his head at the WWE US Champion...XP

But Stacy's mom has got it goin' on.

I just learned Joran van der Sloot is a Dutch murderer.
