Re: Primrose
in reply to a message by Lily
The "prim" part really puts me off. I don't think primness is a valuable trait, and giving someone this name kind of seems like a perpetuation of proper or prissy femininity. The "rose" part makes it even worse. This sounds like a caricature, a 19th-century woman in a seduction novel whose name curses her to unending propriety.
