Default Names that have been ruined

Talking with someone about my name (Kramer - it's my last name) and how it has been slightly corrupted by Michael Richards.

At least my name's not Katrina I said.


What other names have been ruined? These names were fine for a while, and then some asshat messed it up for everyone else with that name.

I'll start:

Katrina
Monica
Adolf

Adolf is really a prime example. It'd be interesting to see how many Germans, since '45, have given their kid that name. Similarly, "Der Fuehrer" was a pretty common term in German before WWII (it just means "the leader"). That term has been almost completely stricken from common usage because of the associations.

Katrina was corrupted long before the hurricane. All the Katrinas I've met have been gargoyles, so if I have a daughter, that's the last name I'd be giving her.
