nms at all (m)
in reply to a message by guru
I don't like this name at all. It sounds like a desease... or like "flocks". I much, much, much, much more prefer Lily and Rose. Phlox has a cool meaning... but that's it. Phloxie is worse.

I assure you: Lily is not better. I'd rather HAVE a disease than hear it used again (and I love lilies). Just kidding, of course. :)

Matter of opinion
Lily is not popular where I am--I see the popularity charts but I literally know none. It's one of my most favorite names. If I were to ever have children (which is NOT my plan) I wouldn't mind using it. Same with Rose--especially it and variants have been in my family for SO many generations.
I would rather have everyone be named Rose or Lily than ever meet a Phlox.

I have never met a Lily in my life, nor do I see it come up in the local BA's. I don't think it's very popular here, either.
And I agree with you- I'd rather have a thousand Lilys and Roses than one Phlox.
