As if Poppy was bad enough, we now have little Peppers too.
I named my first goldfish Pepper, but I wouldn't even name a cat Pepper.
Apple isn't even a nice word, let alone a person's name!

But I love Poppy!Poppy Madeline, in particular. I know the drug reference is pretty bad, but I honestly don't think of it. Poppy is just so cute!But I agree with you on Pepper. Pepper is a pet name. Apple is fine as a nn for Apollonia, but not as a name itself. Oh well, we'll live.

That's my problem, Poppy is far too cutesy. I can't imagine a 40-year-old professional woman named Poppy. Personally, I think it's a ridiculous name for a person.

Actually there is a commentator on CNN named Poppy Harlowe. I feel really bad for her though- it sounds like a Stripper name.

This is true...It's definately one of the most cutesy flower names out there. But I still love it. Maybe not necessarily to use, but it's fun to play around with in combos and the likes.
