Gorgeous, although...

---

It reminds me a bit of "awkward". :)

It's interesting, but harsh sounding. I prefer Opal.

I love it!

I really like it! It's a guilty pleasure name for me : )

love it

I agree with the others, its quite unpleasant sounding. I think its ok for a mn though. I love flower names but this is one I'd avoid using as a fn.

Lovely flowers.. It would be a good middle name, interesting.

Honestly, I think Orchid sounds ugly. The "or" and the "chid" don't work well together. I would never use it, even as a mn.

Don't like it at all, has a hard unpleasant sound to it. Also the word is cloesly associated with testicles (our cat had an orchidectomy; if he'd been a monorchid it would have cost more; the vet told us that) and when I was younger I used to think Orkin Pest Control was Orchid.

I think it would be nice as a middle name depending on what the first names is.
