all the "un-hot" names you have named:
Barb
Lynn
Bertha
Patty
Ethel
Gertrude
Hester
Harriet
Beatrix
Eugenie

These names are from the 1930s-1950's, What 20 something has a name Bertha...

You just proved my point.

how is that?

you just named some popular names of girls in there 20's and call them "hot people" names, any popular modern name by that token would fit as a "hot" name.

All you've done is compiled a list of young person names and old person names. I guarantee that every Ethel and Gertrude you've ever known were over 50. You didn't find them hot? Surprising!

I heard Ophellia is pretty hot.

Daysi? I would expect someone who went by that name to be a middle school dropout with an IQ below 80. And talks like this "OMGHI2U!!ROOFLES!"

LoL. Actually she was raised in Nicaragua for 12 years then came here, and now is my GF. She was also Ms. Teen Nicaragua when she was 16. So she's a hottie :p

Notice the spelling. It's usually Daisy, but over in Nicaragua is Daysi, which I think is hotter
