[Opinions] Topaz
What do you think of Topaz? It's a feminine name and is after the precious stone. I like it.

I think it'd make a neat middle name, but I personally would hate the have it as my first name. It could be useful in spunking up a more common name eg.
Ella Topaz
Olivia Topaz
Hannah Topaz
Abigail Topaz
Freya Topaz
Anna Topaz
Ava Topaz
Hayley Topaz
Sophia Topaz
etc.

I think it sounds equally masculine, and it really could go either way since it's a nature name. I like the combo Atticus Topaz, which randomly came to me one day, but as a name itself I'm not a huge fan of the sound of it.

I'm not sure if a boy would want a gemstone name. They might think it sounds too "girly."

I agree, this is purely hypothetical!

Not a fan. I think gem names on girls sound trashy.

I think it depends on the name. Some gemstone names I really don't like. Others are okay.

I don't like it as a first name. I think it would make a better middle name. I'm not really a huge fan of gemstone names. Sometimes they can sound a bit tacky.

Nice, I've just been thinking about it lately and wanting to post the same thing. I think it's pretty great, actually - feminine, fun, spunky, unqiue. I'd definitely consider it as a middle name, just because I probably wouldn't have the nerve to use it as a first name! But I'm thinking that this one is not even worth attempting to run by my husband. I can hear the guffawing already!`

It sounds rather hippie-ish to me. I like it, but I'd put it down as a GP.

It's great! I'm adding it to my personal name list. My birthstone is Garnet but I don't like that so much.

Yes, I love it too! I'm glad to see someone else likes it as well!
