Re: Poppy
in reply to a message by Bex
I think Poppy is really sweet for a little girl and could even work for a teenager, but I just can't seen it in an adult. Then again there are a lot of names that are popular for babies now that I can't imagine on an adult. I guess by the time all those babies are adults I will be used to the names.Anyway I think Poppy would be a great nn or pet name. By that I mean a pet name for a child not an animal :) You know, a term of affection not derived from the childs actually name. The only name I think of off the top of my had that you could use Poppy as a nn for is Penelope.I like that you have chosen traditional mns with Poppy. I like Poppy Eleanor and Poppy Madeleine. I think I would avoid Lilian because it contains the word Lily and Poppy Lily is just too many flowers.I think Milo, Jasper and Felix all go really well with Poppy. The girls names seem a little too traditional. Ruby is probably most similar in style but I don't like that they both end with Y. I like Poppy and Eleanor best I think. But you know little Eleanor might wish her name was more fun and cute like sister Poppy, and a grown-up Poppy might wish for a more serious, dignified name like sister Eleanor.
