Names that radiate thot energy. If you have one of these names, tough luck, you're a thot. (This is all for fun and jokes, if you do happen to have one of these names, that's totally valid and cool. You're cool. If you're considering one or more of these names (be it for a child, yourself, or a character), that's also valid and cool. Use the names you like. Cheers.)
