[Opinions] Give me your thoughts on the name Calypso for a girl
Replies
Until today, I just googled it, I thought the ice cream was named Calypso but it’s Calippo 😂 But it’s the first thing I think of whenever I see the name Calypso. Summer days on the beach with a calippo ice cream.
I like it
Seems cartoonish to me.
It's kinda fun. It's funky, very tropical sounding. The "-lipso" part is less appealing, but it's still ok. It doesn't make me think of the myth at all, more about Pirates of the Caribbean. So the name itself comes across as tacky in a fun, theme park kind of way, like a plastic cup shaped like a pineapple, or a hot pink lawn flamingo (which is something I'm personally into).
Callie is a very nice nickname that could make it easier to pull off, but it's not a name rooted in reality. I agree it would be a great pet name though!

It's okay. Reminds me of Calypso Lemonade.
I like it but I don’t think it works on a real person, possibly a pet or a character.
I don’t mind it! I think it’s cool.
I like it. Aside from the nymph I think of the character in The Camomile Lawn.
Better than Cha-Cha, but only just. Musical names in general don't appeal to me.
Wait, how is Calypso a musical name?
Calypso is a genre of music, very popular in the Caribbean (originating in Trinidad).
