Acacia means 'thorn' -- all people have thorns. Flaws are what make us special and unique. Acacia is no exception. The name itself is flawless, and I couldn't be happier that more people are beginning to respect it as a name.
Nature names are very pretty. This is one of my favorites!

Even though it is a tree name, I think Acacia is a very beautiful and unique name. Definitely turn heads, that's for sure. Imagine an Acacia among dozens of Mia's, Isabella's and Charlotte's. It is a unique name that, unlike many others, does not look "vulgar" or seem misspelled. A good choice.
I don’t like the spelling much but it’s okay, not one of my favourites.
I think it's quite nice! Though, I would probably prefer it as a middle name.
The meaning (thorn) is all right, but it sounds disgusting. I picture a grubby, spoiled girl who can't keep her hands to herself.
To be honest, when I first heard this name, I was like “how do you even pronounce this?” (I pronounce it as a-case-e-ah) but now I think it’s a really pretty and unique name. Especially Acacia Rose.
Very pretty name. Never heard of it before.
Feminine form of Acacius.
I´m gonna be totally honest... at first I was like, w0w, why would you name someone after a tree... but the more I repeated it and thought, the more appealing it was, now I think it is a beautiful and unique name. I´d be proud of this name as well.
Don't name your kids tree bro.

I hate both pronunciations of this name.

This is such a gorgeous, underused nature name. The Acacia tree itself has such a striking silhouette.
This name is so cool and ethereal.
I like it because it's my name. When I was younger I used to not like it because people would mispronounce it. I now realize it is rare and very beautiful.
The ending isn't that great because that's the ending that makes us think of Ghettos and I don't like this thought. Still, it's a 6/10 name!
I'm inclined to pronounce this Ah-kay-shya, but I really enjoy the pronunciation any which way it goes. It sounds fluffy and pretty and overtly feminine.

I had a classmate with this name but it was spelled Akaysha which I liked because [the name] it was unique but I hate names that basically spell out every sound so Acacia is definitely a much better spelling. Beautiful name.

This name is getting quite common in Australia, where it is used due to the association of our national tree, the Golden Wattle, which is a member of the Acacia family. It is therefore considered a very patriotic name.It's become common enough that parents are now tacking another name on the end, like Acacia-Lily or Acacia-Rose, so their daughter doesn't get mixed up with other little Acacias in their class.Good choice for someone born on Wattle Day (September 1st).
Sounds a bit ghetto, and reminds me of a crappy deathcore band called The Acacia Strain.
It's pretty, but I think it's better as a middle name.

I don't like the pronunciation, but the way it's spelled is very pretty, and so are the trees. It sounds tropical to me.
I love this name because it's my name. When I was younger I didn't like it so much because people would always pronounce it wrong but now I like it. I realize it's a rare, but beautiful name (and now more people pronounce it correctly and they ask which way because in Spanish it's pronounced slightly different). Like the other people said, i think only certain people can pull off this name and I think I do it well.

I like the pronunciation 'Ah-cay-see-ah' that I thought it was before finding out the actual pronunciation better, but it's a pretty name either way. I used it as the middle name of one of characters, and she was indeed very exotic; I agree that this name only fits some people, and characters better than actual people.
I argee with Kitten, only a certain person could pull off this name. Like some exotic beauty. It's great for a character, but I don't like it for a person.

This name is so gorgeous. :]
I like this name but only a certain person could "pull it off" me thinks. It would be great on an exotic beauty but not a plain Jane.
Ugh. Ridiculous name.
I think it would be cute if there was a nickname for it like "Cacy" (kay-SHEE) or "Cacy" (kay-SEE). Lovely name.
I used to prefer this pronounced a-KAY-see-a. Now I say a-KAY-sha. I really like this name!
