What kind of person do you think of when you hear the name Sydney?

Question

A friend is thinking of naming her daughter Sydney. I like the name but when you hear it what kind of person (girl) comes to mind? You know how names can come with certain stereotypes? So what kind of person is a Sydney to you?

Answer 1

A firey redhead, with alot of personality and a bit of a temper.

Answer 2

Most sydneys i know are potheads.  

Answer 3

I acutally think of Australia which is pretty cool!!  It's a great name

Answer 4

No offense to your friend, but stuck up and snooty.

Answer 5

i think of a unique, cool girl. someone down to earth.

Answer 6

Honestly, a s****., stuck up, biotch.  

Answer 7

The only Sydney I ever knew was obese, rude, and a bully. Sydney is also a city name; not a proper name for a little girl.  

Answer 8

Trashy. Either a stripper or a hooker.

Horrid horrid name for a girl. It's a city not a name. And it sounds masculine.

Answer 9

Cute and friendly.

Answer 10

When I hear the name Sydney, I thank of someone that's adventurous sporty and outgoing. Maybe someone who's into mountain climbing.  

Answer 11

The name reminds of 2 people -

1- my ex-father-in-law - who was an abusive, alcoholic, womanizer

2- my grand-daughter - who is an intelligent, self-assured girl who is excelling in school and is a natural leader.

soooo ... whatever that does for you .. it does for you ...
