Re: Heather
in reply to a message by Lily
Well I have known or met very few women named Heather. I was born in 87 which was its last year in the top 10. But I oddly have met very few Heather's. I've gone to school with either none or maybe one in my age group.
But I know one Heather my age kind of well. My cousin who I am close to, one of her best friends is named Heather. She's friendly, nice, quirky, quiet, and artistic. She wears glasses and mostly vintage clothing, and has natural strawberry blonde hair that is more towards the strawberry side.
I named Heather the large Beanie Baby stuffed animal I got from my mom on Valentine's Day when I was in 6th or 7th grade. I liked the name because to me it seemed uncommon, romantic, and sweet. Later I got a regular sized Beanie Baby that looked exactly the same. I named her Rose and she was Heather's daughter. IMO Heather and Rose have a similar feel to them. Lavender and Heather also have a similar feel but Lavender is grey-purple and Heather is dark and light pink.
Heather makes me think of the beautiful hearty pink flowers of the same name that you'll find in the mountains while hiking. Heather has a very romantic softness to it while at the same time making me think of rugged wild landscapes. I've always liked the name Heather and I never associated the name with cheerleaders. I only saw the movie Heathers just a few years ago. It was an okay movie.
When I think of girls named Heather I think of my cousin's friend or the Heather who owns a little artisan cheese making business with her partner, who sells her cheese at the Farmers Market in Olympia. I always would buy some cheese from her when I went to the Market. I loved their cheese curds with fresh garlic and parsley. I also loved their chevre and their blue.
Heather makes me think of farmers, hikers, historians, artists, and writers. Somebody who is creative but also down to earth. I picture a Heather either being strawberry blonde or with honey brown locks. I picture them having wavy hair with bit of body to it and it being just a couple inches in length past the shoulder. I can picture a Heather with any eye color but I think brown, hazel, and blue would suit her the best.
I'm not a huge fan of H names for girls but Hazel, Heather, and Honora are my top three favorites and I actually like them a lot. Hazel I love enough that it is in my top 25 girls names. Heather doesn't quite rate that high but I really like it.
