Inspired by a 2014 study by Kiju Jung et al, but I feel they didn't choose a wide range of names. Brutal blackpill for sandcels:
The paper indeed looks silly to me, although there’s possibly something there. They report that the scariest-sounding names are, in order, Omar, Bertha, Cristobal, Marco, Kyle, Arthur, and Laura/Fay/Dolly. This makes sense given the stereotypes we have (BIg Bertha, etc, and Omar of course is a scary middle-easterner, right?), but I don’t take it as meaning much, partly because these judgments are taken out of context.

Experiment 1 used five male and five female names from the official 2014 Atlantic Hurricane names. Three hundred forty-six participants predicted each hurricane’s intensity on two items (1 = not at all, 7 = very intense; 1 = not at all, 7 = very strong). As expected, hurricanes with male names (Arthur = 4.246, Cristobal = 4.455, Omar = 4.569, Kyle = 4.277, and Marco = 4.380) were predicted to be more intense than those with female names (Bertha = 4.523, Dolly = 4.014, Fay = 4.042, Laura = 4.039, and Hanna = 4.181).

The names you will see in this new poll (2023 study) are real hurricane names. Vote on which ones you'd evacuate from, based on the sound of their name alone. Then, vote on how strong they sound like, using these metrics:
1 = not intense
7 = extremely intense

It's also a multiple-choice poll!


The names that I will use for this study:
  • Deshawn
  • Ophelia
  • Imani
  • Lorenzo
  • Tayshaun
  • Humberto
  • Omar
  • Karen
  • Nigel
  • Farrah

People Look Like Their Names

Does anyone else find people often look like their names? I've always thought this My main IRL example is Sarah & Sierra, every Sarah & Sierra I know is fat, literally have come across probably 60 people with these names in my life and every single one was fat.

Why?


you're welcome. Which ones would you evacuate from?

Well, here's my thought process:

It's the least intimidating name. Because it's a female name.
Since it's the least intimidating name, I would be worried that I am allowing the name of the hurricane influence my perception of its severity.
In order to best assuage this worry, I would therefore be most likely to evacuate in its wake.

JFL in a previous study they rated Omar as the scariest:
