Re: Primrose
in reply to a message by Lily
I might be in the minority here, and it may be because I really like floral names, haha, but I actually like Primrose.
I knew of its existence before Hunger Games, and even though people might associate it with that highly now, there were certainly little girls named Hermione before Harry Potter came out, so I try not to think of it as much. Plus I don't think literary or historical homage is such a bad thing in naming your child. There are worse reasons or inspirations to name your child after, though I know that isn't what you're doing anyway.
I like Primrose, and I don't mind Meadow, but I'd certainly chose Primrose. I like Primrose Catherine, Primrose Adelaide, & Primrose Josephine. I guess the classic in the middle name spot...
