Associating Different Names with Different Hair Colors

Post Reply New Topic

I want to know more about the association of names with hair colors. Here's how I associate names with hair colors:
Kelly: Blonde
Jennifer: Light brown
Michelle: Dark brown
Anna: Light brown
Emily: Strawberry blonde
Leigh: Blonde
Maria: Dark brown
Alison: Dark brown
Zoe: Blonde
Samantha: Dark brown
Jessica: Blonde
Christina: Blonde
Amy: Dark brown
Lauren: Strawberry blonde
Mary: Light brown
Lisa: Light brown

I do this too. It's usually because I have known someone with that name in the past/know someone currently with that hair colour.

Roberta: Reddish Gold
Lauren; Blonde
Anne: Black
Tina: Dirty blonde (This is a strong, if someone's name is Tina and they don't have dirty blonde hair, I will forget their name)
Meghan: Strawberry blonde
Kelly: Brown
Jennifer: Light brown
Christine: Black

I have two nieces; Rachel who has blonde hair and Greta who has dark hair. I am always calling them by the wrong name because when I think Rachel I think biblical therefore dark hair and when I hear Greta I think of Hansel and Gretel which makes me think of Northern countries and blonde hair.

Only with a few.
Vivian: Blonde.
Bianca: Dark hair like brown.
Samantha: Blonde.
Can't think of many.

I do that. Sometimes it's associated with my synesthesia (for example, anyone whose name starts with D should have brown hair), other times it's just from people I know. A few examples:

Emily - dark blonde
Jessica - orange
Elizabeth - blonde
Kate - dark brown
Brian - light brown
Mark - brown
Natasha - auburn
Oliver - blonde
Naomi - black
Valerie - light brown
