‘Traditional sectors such as law and insurance seem to be less open-minded when it comes to accepting modern names than more youthful sectors such as sales and marketing.’
It comes after a former Apprentice star Katie Hopkins triggered fury last week after declaring she vets her children’s friends according to their names.
The mother-of-three said she uses names a ‘shortcut’ to working out whether or not the child comes from the right sort of family to make an appropriate ‘playdate’ for her children.
She told ITV’s This Morning: ‘For me, there’s certain names that I hear and I hear them and I think “urgh”.
‘For me, a name is a shortcut to work out what class a child comes from and: “Do I want my children to play with them?”’
She added: ‘I tend to think that children who have intelligent names tend to have fairly intelligent parents. They make much better playdates therefore for my children.’
Miss Hopkins claimed children called Tyler, Chardonnay and Charmain are less likely to have done their homework and been disruptive at school, claims dismissed by her fellow guest as ‘snortworthy’.
She went on to insist she hates any child named after a footballer, a season, a geographical location - even though one of her children is called India - and a celebrity.
The presenter Phillip Schofield pointed out that children with all types of names, such as Monty, can still be ‘nasty, self-centred airheads’.
