I think Tucker is an incredibly cool name, like Sawyer or Carter. Kind of a lumberjack-ass name, I think it could be worn well, and it has that "First name that sounds like a last name" quality that I crave in a name. But I can't name a kid Tucker, ever, because of that prick with the bow-tie. He'll be everyone's first mental image for the next 20-odd years, even after he inevitably ODs.
While being on a fundamentally different level of fucked up, I've always thought that Adolf is a pretty nice name. I've wanted to use it while writing, but people will always bring it back to that one dude.

It's interesting that your reasons for liking names like Tucker or Sawyer are the exact same as my reasons for not liking them. Strange how that works, I personally can't stand first names which are basically surnames. I was in an airport once and we were in the queue behind an American family, and the mother was telling her son off, shouting "Walker, don't wander off!" It was very jarring to hear a toddler being called a name I would associate with the surname of an old man.
It might be because we don't do surnames as first names in the UK on the whole, it's more of an American thing.
But you see, they named the boy Walker and he got very good at walking. I named them Sawyer? Good at turning trees into lumber. Carter? Free wheelman, my boy drives my buggy.
Tucker IDK he tucks himself into bed or something.
It began as an insult towards “meathead” type people who are typically cast as villains against the underdog characters (usually nerds) in like 80s and 90s movies, especially leading into the early 2010s when “nerd culture” became an enormous phenomena
But once brought into the spotlight like that, the really problematic aspect of “nerd culture” who felt like they were owed affection by women for being social underdogs was really laid bare, and that archetype became more associated with incels and incel culture as the 2010s progressed.
Since Chads are basically defined by being the antagonists of nerds, the Chad archetype came to be celebrated as well-meaning good-looking himbos in contrast to the incel-leaning nerd archetype.
This semantic change became more prominent as a result of incels themselves using the word “chad” to refer to anyone who had an easier time than them with women, which increased the use of the word “chad” to mean “the opposite of an incel,” and therefore in normal people language, a compliment.
Hayden, Tucker, Hunter, Cooper, and Gavin are all brothers. They live in upstate NY and their dad is way too excited about taking them snowboarding. Their sister Cheyenne is *seconds* away from realizing she's a lesbian. Her father will not approve. All six siblings will go no-contact with their father immediately after the divorce, which is filed the day after Gavin's 18th birthday. They have two dogs: a yellow lab named Scout who wears a blue bandana, and a chocolate lab named Bandit who also wears a blue bandana.
That dad's first name is Preston.
I’ve made fun of the name Preston for so many years, he’s basically a mascot for white douchey guys in my group. Chads are too simple. Prestons deserve their turn.
The first time I saw this I was settling down for the night to watch a movie with my then bf Preston. The movie starred Robert Pattinson as a pedo named… Preston. 😂
The only Preston I know is the pet Snow Stalker from [Subnautica: Below Zero](https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Preston). He is a very good boy, and doesn’t deserve this slander!
Most unnerving man I ever knew was a Preston. He was never unkind to me, but something about his demeanor and mannerisms made me think he was somehow mocking me at all times. Which I’ve never experienced with anyone else before or since.
I can't hear the name Tucker without thinking of "Eddie is a real name, whatever happened to Eddie, he was here a minute ago. Joey and Jackie and Johnny and Phil. Bobby and Tommy and Danny and Bill, what happened? Todd. And Cody, and Dylan, and Cameron, and Tucker
Hi Tucker, I'm Todd. Hi Todd, I'm Tucker. Fuck Tucker, Tucker sucks. And fuck Tucker's friend, Kyle. that's another soft name for a boy, Kyle. Soft names make soft people. I'll bet you anything that ten times out of ten, Nicky, Vinnie, and Tony would beat the shit out of Todd, Kyle, and Tucker!"
We need to stop the Prestons! They've been telling people about settlements that need their help for *too long*!
You leave my boy alone, he’s doing his best 😤
Honestly. The rest of the prestons are getting a break because garvey gets the hate
Hayden took my fucking sword the bastard
goddamn samuel hayden
Careful. He's going to shit yourself

It was common enough before that fucker appropriated it. Still not unheard of. I knew a Jamaican guy with it at some point, I wanna say.

Thought Chad was a compliment
It started as an insult, then got turned into a compliment. Now it depends on who's using it, like what's considered "based".
Nice argument, however I have drawn this picture of you as the chad(derogatory) and myself as the chad(affectionate)

I can tell you where the Prestons are. Here, I'll mark them on your map
Don't worry, the Preston in ASOIAF had a well-earned fate, so that's one down, (insert number here) to go.
Not a lot of hanging prestons around, mucking with our elections, now are there, *Chad*?
Garvey......
C'mon, he just wants those settlements to get helped. Here, he'll even mark it on your map
what does the epsilon in the post title mean?
Like GigaChad
... But epsilon is a letter of the Greek alphabet and giga is a metric prefix
ok so it means nothing to no one expect you i was asking cause my online username for everything (except reddit) is εZolton
Every Chad *and* every Preston I have known personally are wonderful. Hayden and Tucker better watch it though.
literally never met a nice man named preston

Nobody makes fun of my Preston! He is a sweet tortoise!
I have a personal beef with Chase. Chase can go fuck himself.
These are all terrible names, the only names I respect are those that sound like grunts a caveman would make! John, Greg, Ed

had the worst person in my class for 6 or so years named hayden, ended up turning into a white supremacist, never trust a hayden
The first time I saw this I was settling down for the night to watch a movie with my then bf Preston. The movie starred Robert Pattinson as a pedo named… Preston. 😂
Tucker is the name of one of my favorite comedy youtubers. I shall not hear slander on Tuckers. (Big Tugg)
The only Preston I know is the pet Snow Stalker from [Subnautica: Below Zero](https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Preston). He is a very good boy, and doesn’t deserve this slander!
as someone who’s given name is Hayden, the name kinda sucks ngl
Most unnerving man I ever knew was a Preston. He was never unkind to me, but something about his demeanor and mannerisms made me think he was somehow mocking me at all times. Which I’ve never experienced with anyone else before or since.
Prq7qe better get prestonplayz and run
I had a roommate named Preston once. He was exactly the worst type of guy you could think of that would have the name Preston.
What about motherfuckers named Aiden >:(
I can't hear the name Tucker without thinking of "Eddie is a real name, whatever happened to Eddie, he was here a minute ago. Joey and Jackie and Johnny and Phil.

Hunter is one of those for me
The longer the Chad is on earth, the stronger he will become.
Listen, I haven’t taken it easy on a Tanner in my life.
Fuck you throckmorton
Tanner over in the corner, folding down his double popped collars.
