I feel the same way, and I'm really picky about names. Like, if the kid is named after a canon character I think the author is unimaginative (even worse if the first AND middle names are after two different canon characters), but if it's a made-up name or something exceedingly trendy with a jacked-up spelling then I can't suspend my disbelief enough to actually get into the story.

I like to pretend that the epilogue was written by some 11-year-old fan that won a contest.

[(Anonymous)]

Do you mean it wasn't?!

The epilogue is the only part of Harry Potter series I've read (we had them for sale at the yarn store where I worked, there was an unofficial Harry Potter Knits book, too). So I read it the morning of the release, so that anyone who asked for spoilers could get them.

It did not inspire me to read the previous 4000+ pages.

[dimestoresaint]

The thing about the epilogue is that it's nothing at all like the rest of the series. I really meant it when I said it reads more like a little kid's fanfiction.

[(Anonymous)]

Yessssssss. That epilogue just doesn't exist and those characters literally are not valid to me at all.

[elaminator]

I'm not a huge HP fan so I wasn't invested in the ending as much as others, but that bit made me cringe.

(And OP, that's an adorable baby. Wonderful picture choice.)

[tabaqui]

Oh dear gods, how i hated that.

I'm even picky about names in original fiction. If I don't like the name of the main character, the story has to sound spectacular for me to sit through it.

[dimestoresaint]

I give a little more leeway to original fiction writers, because I don't already have preset ideas that NO THIS 40-SOMETHING-YEAR-OLD COP AND HER BLUE-BLOODED LAWYER GIRLFRIEND WOULD NOT NAME THEIR KID ZAYDEN FFS. ahem Whereas with original fiction, I don't know anything about the character's parents, maybe it's not completely OOC for them to give their kid a stupid name.

But if ALL the characters have ridiculous names (and my definition of "ridiculous" sometimes depends on the setting and genre) then I'm out.
