I want to hear everyone's honest-to-God opinion on this name. Is it trendy and tacky or a classy nature name that your glad popped up. Do you think it's going to become dated or do you think it's here to stay and will become a well-established nature name?

I've always liked it

It is really pretty. Not over used, but common enough that it isn't way out there or anything. It is actually on my list of baby names for this baby!

Its ok. It sounds depressing to me, probably because it reminds me of weeping willow tree's...

I don't really like it, but I don't really find it trendy or tacky either. It's just kind of one of those whimisical nature names.

I love it. Lots of people have told me thay don't like it because of the Weeping Willow but in my opinion that makes it a very strong, possitive name because willow trees bend but never break.

I don't think it is trendy at all and I expect that it is a name that is here to stay.

I LOVE it

its my favourite girl name (apart from my kids' names) I'd use it in a hearbeat if this baby was a girl, I hope I can use it oneday. I don't find it trendy at all.

It's certainly becoming popular. It's a name I'm going to keep my eye on. I don't think it will become too trendy, though. It's much too similar to William / Will etc. I think that would put people off, seeing how popular William is. But it's lovely, very light and pretty.

I love Willow on both boys and girls (girls more though)!! I think it's definitely a cool for now and am glad it's around but can imagine it becoming dated after a while.

I love it and I find it absolutely beautiful. It's one of my top five girl names at the moment.

I love it, and I would use it too. FN or MN, I love it. I see how it might could become trendy but I don't really see that happening too soon. It's on my favorites list for girls.

My #2 girls name!

I just love it. I think it's fresh but not tacky or weird.

I can see how this name *could* become trendy, but I certainly don't see myself using it.

I like it, but only as a gp. I'd never use it in real life, but maybe for a character.

I adore it for a boy only though [m]

It's too overdone on a girl, I don't find it feminine too much. I love Willow NN Will or Wills.

I don't think it's trendy I don't really think names can be trendy really. I don't consider names dated either.
