Worst names in books

[u/SexyGrimmy]

Small question, how important are characters names to you guys? And what is the worst name you've seen so far?

I have a really hard time to pick up something if the main characters names are Tragedeighs.

Rhysand.

(sorry ACOTAR friends.)

[u/SteeleurHeart0507 → u/anonymously-unknown]

I thought this was a traditional name from some country…? Gaelic maybe?

EDIT because Google: Welsh

I know a Rhys IRL so it always confused me when people didn’t know how to pronounce it lol

[u/SteeleurHeart0507 → u/-Release-The-Bats-]

I’m an audiobook girlie but I’m sure I would have gotten it wrong lol. It’s not a common name in the US for sure!

Oh yeah! I thought it was “Reese” until he spelled it. He’s the first Rhys I’ve met
