Help[Opinions] Re: Peony
in reply to a message by New_Chloe
I absolutely love peonies and their scent is intoxicating but Peony as a name has yet to grow on me. I think it has to do with the juvenile "pee" part :o/ I hate my hang-ups sometimes lol.
Peony Margaret - Love this. Actually, I like it better than Peony Martha.
Peony Jennifer - Not too childish. Jennifer seems to ground Peony better than Genevieve and Guinevere though I love Guinevere (just my opinion).
Peony Eloise - Hmmm... pretty but not hitting the mark for me.
Peony Eleanor - I like this but then again I'm partial to little Eleanor.
Peony Sylvia - This is good. Sylvia makes the combo whispery and soft.
Peony Frances - Frances is kinda ugly to me today lol so it makes Peony feel incomplete.
Peony Francoise - Oui! Oui! A little upity but good.
Peony Marion - Marion brings Peony back down to a more attainable level.
Peony Miriam - I like it but too many "ee" sounds for me today.
Peony Eudora - I think I like the sound of Peony Dora better.
Peony Therese - Are you wanting to pronounce this the German way or the French way? I like the German way better than the French way in this combo.
Peony Josette - Eh.
Peony Mabel - Eh.
Peony Rosalind / Peony Rosamund - Two flowers! Usually not doable to me but these I like.
I'm thinking the r's in some of these middle names are what's making the combo complete for me. My apologies in advance for being so negative.

The "pee" part gets me too. Dang it! You were not negative at all, you made great points.
I think I will just have to name a calico kitten something like Peony Martha one day. I think it suits her already.
I am saying Therese the French way, "tuh-RAYZ" - what is the German way? I have a great-aunt Therese, called Tressie. I used to think Tressie was the dumbest thing ever but now the cuteness of it slays me and I would so use it IRL. Therese nn Tressie. Or maybe just Tressie!
This is not a Tressie post. FOCUS.

Like the English way but the second E pronounced more softly. Almost like "tress-a."
I like Tressie! :o)
EDIT - Also, my husband knows a Therese who pronounces it like "tress." Not sure where that comes from but then again this is not a Therese post lol!
