Primrose
Primrose has turned up in a couple of different posts over the last couple days. At first i was kind of shocked by it, it just seemed like it wasn't a name that was actually usable but the more i have been seeing it and saying it the more i think i like it. WDYT? would it be seen as completely out there?

Probably my posts :) My top combo is Isabelle Primrose, has been for over six months now.
When I first posted it (would have been June/July as it isn't archived) almost everybody hated it, now most people seem to like it.
The poll I posted (it was June then)
http://www.behindthename.com/polls/arcview.php?id=19272
As you can see in June the opinion was mainly negative - not including the neutral it was 27 negative to 14 positive.
Louise x (maybe I should take credit for introducing it to the board then :) )

I rather like Primrose its a sweet name
The sound is very nice, and very sweet. The only thing that concerns me is that it has the word prim in it, although admittedly it's rarely used these days.
Prim:
Precise or proper to the point of affectation; excessively decorous.
Strait-laced; prudish.
Other than that, I think it's in keeping with the "old fashioned" names which are currently becoming popular (Iris, Violet, Maud etc).

i think it's a little over the top
I don't particularly like it. It seems very prissy and old-ladyish.
thats what i was a little afraid of...
I like it okay, but prefer it as a middle name.
I haven't seen it on anyone's post, but it's actually very nice. Kind of cute.
