Re: Willow
in reply to a message by Lily
I love Willow! It went through a bit of a trendy phase, but I don't think it was too bad. Plus the wispy, whimsical nature vibe I get from is enough to counteract any possible trendiness in my mind. Willow makes me think of whispery forests and a light green color like trees seen through a mist.
Meadow is cute, but I wouldn't use it. It's very bright and clear and happy while Willow is more calm and ethereal, which is more my style.. so if I had to use one I'd definitely use Willow.
Meadow and Willow are a bit too similar for sisters. They're both 2-syllable nature names ending in "ow". They'd be cute as middle names for sisters, but as first names they're too matchy.
I haven't met anyone named Meadow or Willow, although I've heard of one or two Willows (in contexts like "we were in [town] and so-and-so's sister Willow met us there bla bla bla"), but never any Meadows.
