❌ Why Literal Nouns & Outdated Names Backfire

  • Everyday objects (Apple, Candy, Sugar, Dragon) never entered US SSA Top 1000 and read as nicknames or slang abroad.
  • Pet-popular tags (Lucky, Coco, Kitty) create unintended comic contrast in corporate resumes.
  • Boomer-era peaks (Linda #1 in 1950, Betty #2 in 1930, Gary #10 in 1950) create a stark generational mismatch for young professionals.

✅ Data-Driven Naming Strategy

  • Phonetic alignment: Map Li/Lei → Lily/Liam, Wen → Owen, Rui → Ryan/Rhys cleanly.
