Piper
WDYT of Piper? Good, bad or ugly? Combo suggestions?
Replies
I LOVE it!
It's ok. I don't like it. But yeah whatever
I like it. It's not ugly. The only issue is that it's a word for someone who plays a pipe.

I have just seen it in a bookserie before. But it is one of my favorite bookseries, and Piper is a sweet, kind and tought girl, and she is a daughter of Afrodite (demigod). My first thoughts of the name goes to her, but that is just positive.
Ugly and kind of sinister (the Pied Piper). It's Pippi with a surnamey spin on it.
Makes me think of smoking and plumbing ... and TBH, I get an anatomical metaphor from it, like windpipe (trachea) which feels icky to me.
All those things would very likely fade into unconsciousness, if I met a person named Piper in real life. I haven't. But I still would not really like the name.
I like the basic sound idea - the stressed long I, the -er ending, it's hip, it's sayable. But the double P wrecks it for me. I don't like the sound. I'd rather the sound of Spider - although of course that would be an unfortunate name, if the word didn't mean spider, it would be a more pleasant sound than Piper.
I'd pair it with something lilty. Piper Laurie sounded so good... if you always say the full name, anyway.

I like Piper. I think it is Bohemian without being too nature-y, like Skye, Wren, or any one of the flower names that is gaining popularity. It is an occupation based name but I certainly recognize it more as a proper name than a noun.
For combos I would avoid the above mentioned nature names because they would play up the hippy vibe. I would suggest something classic, with a few syllables and, no "r" to compete with. Maybe Elizabeth or Louise.

It's ridiculous, really. It just sounds like the name of some chattering, jug-eared, freckle-faced, bucktoothed kid in pigtails and overalls running around in a fantasy world, not like a real person.
