[Opinions] Paisley
For some reason today this name sounds really appealing on a little girl. I know most of you will hate it, but give it to me anyways, what do you think of Paisley?Auntie to: Robert, Brady, Juliana & Sophia.

I'm really starting to like this name. I think it sounds and looks pretty.

I'm actually really into Paisley right now as well.

You can count me in that "most of you." I dislike it, probably because I don't care for paisley in general. I would have the same reaction if you chose the name Argyle or Plaid.

I dislike the design (paisleys) and the sound. My friend has a boy cat named Paisley and I had a friend in Jr. high that wanted to name her daughter Paisley. But I wouldn't advise it; seems an immature choice.

Don't like it at all. Automatically makes me think of hideously ugly 70s clothing. LOL What about Ainsley instead? NMS either, but less associated with a dark time in fashion history. :)

I actually really like that name.. but only on a girl!"Don't make someone a priority, who only makes you an option."

Where I live (Scotland), Paisley is a famously low-standard university. (One of the worst performing in the country.) It's also a rather boring industrial town.So I can't picture it as a name on anyone, though I do agree it's better on a female.Besides, the Paisley pattern is hideous. I can't think of a single positive connotation :-(_____________________________________________________________________Elinor'Why do people with closed minds, always open their mouths?'

I don't really like the pagan connections with the pattern paisley so I avoid wearing it usually and I really wouldn't consider it for a name! *Sorry* Can't wrap my arms around it! :(

It does seem a little humorous to me -- but I do dislike it much less than Presley, which to me seems like an even sillier image to place on a girl.
